Actually, I'm going to nominate one that isn't among my original post.  

This is from the couple Glen Hansard from Ireland and Markéta Iglová from Czechoslovakia.  They even did a movie in 2007 called "Once" before they recorded this track.  Collectively, they are known as The Swell Season and this song comes from their 2009 album "Strict Joy".  They are currently still touring together under this name.

So here is my nomination, 
The Swell Season - "Low Rising"

Haven't had time to listen yet, and that won't happen in the next week/10 days or so, but I will do so when it is possible. I already gave my nomination (Jehnny Beth - Human)...

First thoughts on hearing Mike's final addition and nomination:

Mike:  The Swell Season “Low Rising” Sort of a soulful/folk singer-songwriter duo.  Nice subdued horns and whangy guitar lead in the middle section.  Very understated tune, could be a grower for me.

My nomination is

Bruce Springsteen &The Sessions Band: Further On (Up The Road) live in Dublin
Amos Goldberg (professor of Genocide Studies at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem): Yes, it's genocide. It's so difficult and painful to admit it, but we can no longer avoid this conclusion.

Thanks for that throwback Puppy.  Dead  

I actually met The Judds once.  Not something I've been that proud of.  The company I worked for back in the late 80's hosted a country music concert with The Judds, Steve Wariner and Dwight Yoakum, and we were obligated to attend.  I was also obligated to go backstage after and do a meet and greet and have my picture taken with The Judds.  Naomi was nice enough but Wynonna was kind of a snob.  

Anyway, thanks for the memories I'd rather forget Mr. Pupster.

I've updated the nominees but I think we are missing a few. Let me know and I'll make another update later today. I will be back on in about 8 hours and then put together a playlist and add any others.

First thoughts on siLLy puPPy's post of The Judds:
siLLy PuPPy:  The Judds “Girls’ Night Out”  Of course I know of The Judds, living in Nashville for 9 years, you couldn’t have missed them.  We built a bus for them, too (which is why I was in Nashville in the first place, bus business).  Anyway, this is country pop rock with confident stars at the height of their career.  It doesn't pop for me as an extra special tune of theirs, but they certainly fit the category.

Now that I've seen the line-up so far I'm a bit confused. In terms of music quality out of my three proposals Flora Purim & Airto Moreira definitely stand out for me. But since they are quite well-known I thought that I should nominate one of the remaining options. Did Flora & Airto appear in any of the previous polls?

FYI, sometimes the impression that someone in that circumstance is a snob can be explained thus, they may actually sort of be in the same situation that you describe yourself in...feeling obligated to mix with the consumers after the show...the 'meet and greet' that you describe. Two sides of the same coin. Not all artists really give a damn about the elbow rubbing stuff. Once the thrill and energy of the live show has passed some would rather just retreat to their happy place.

I assume that most of you are familiar with Flora & Airto who are actually my first choice. I'll give therefore a chance to my young Cuban twins, I think they will fit in well in this family themed poll.

So I'll nominate: Ibeyi with their song River.

Yep.  The main difference is .... it's part of their job to do the elbow rubbing stuff.  That why they get paid the big bucks.  Even though the concert was obligatory for me to attend, I didn't get paid for it. But when I did get paid to meet and greet customers, you can pretty much guess I was expected to be at least tolerant about the situation.  Now I would never buy any of their music because it's not my style, but I guess that is why after the concert, I carried on with my life with some degree of respect for Naomi, but not so much for her daughter.

Anyway, the comment I made to Silly Puppy was more of a joke to him than it was trying to say something bad about the artists.  I was just kidding around with him, but after reading my comment, I can see how it might be taken as a slam against The Judds, when that's not how I intended it.  Though the story actually happened, I didn't want to use it as bad comment toward the artist, and I'm sorry about that.

Playlist:

I have the U.S. playable version of Jehnny Beth in the playlist in the order of the poll. I think I added the non-U.S. playable one at the end. Could someone confirm? Thanks.

Fair enough. AFYI, my comments are based on discussions with and observation of mostly Jazz and Blues musicians at the festival I support. No judgment on my part was intended.
