Check out the band Buke and Gass.  Their name comes from the instruments the only two members play: a bass ukulele and a fabricated thing combining a bass and a guitar.  Their sound is huge, the beats driving, the hooks hooky, and the vocals sweet.  They have a song available for free if you’d care to listen.

You can also learn more about them (as I did) from Radiolab and even download the podcast that featured them.  (On a side note, I highly recommend whole-hog subscribing to the Radiolab podcast).

JB out.
