finally cooling off here in nashville as we settle down to finishing a full length record. 14 songs are written and recorded, and now they need to be mixed. We were sidetracked last week as a new, somewhat unexpected, track came together. Pulled some long studio days to capture it. The working title is 'Too Heavy to Hold' and i am loving working on it. The energy and excitement of a new tune is an indescribable feeling. We will try and post a mix next week up on myspace if all goes as planned. . . stay tuned. . .

Computer vs. Banjo on myspace
About Us:
- Computer vs. Banjo
- Nashville, Tennessee, United States
- "Everything from guitars, drum machines and banjos to dobros, synths and mandolins are thrown into the musical blender. The result is a series of tasty digifolk jams from a band who doesn't need a weatherman to tell it which way the zeitgeist is blowing."
-Wired
"The name of the Nashville band Computer Vs. Banjo says it all: Johnny Mann and Beau Stapleton blend folky banjos and acoustic guitars with synth-heavy electronica and experimental beats. The computer tends to win the battle on the group's self-titled debut, but countless computerized samples of more traditional instruments give the record an eclectic, genre-bending sound."
-NPR
"Mann and Stapleton have created something truly extraordinary in Computer vs. Banjo's unique sound, making them Nashville's next big thing."
-PopWreck(oning)
"From the very first listen, I was in love with this album. If Ill Lit and Califone had a love child, it would be these guys." -Fuzzy Lion "Thankfully, CvB is just what I thought it was going to be. Catchy electro pop matched with poignant banjo, handclaps, fuzzed vocals and irresistible desire to hit repeat."
