Uzi & Ari

Despite the name, Uzi & Ari is not a duo consisting of members named Uzi and Ari, but rather a dynamic band lead by mastermind Ben Shepard.  Due to a  constantly changing lineup, Uzi & Ari's sound has been somewhat different throughout each of their albums.  On each song Shepard's voice is a familiar and recognizable one without sounding repetitive.  With a wide variety of instruments and a mix of upbeat and mesmerizing songs in each album, Uzi & Ari is one of the most interesting bands of which I know to this day.  They are currently working on a truly amazing project for a new album and stage production you can find out about here and if you are as enthusiastic as I am about this project you should consider lending a hand.  If you check out their myspace and watch their music video above for the song "Mountain / Molehill" and you will not be disappointed.
