First listen: Alabama Shakes

DateTuesday, April 3, 2012 at 10:01 AM

I don't get the backlash against Alabama Shakes (here's just one example). The band is getting lots of hype because its soulful, bluesy rock is really good.

NPR is offering a free steam of Alabama Shakes' debut album "Boys and Girls" before its retail release on April 10. "Boys and Girls" isn't perfect, but it's a dynamic 36-minute debut that captures a young band with lots of upside.
