Comments: Singer/songwriter Brian Keenan is bringing some new tempotastic country to the world of music with his debut solo album, Today This Year. The album is rife with that country/folk feeling that we've grown used to since Edward Sharpe and Mumford invaded the airwaves this year, but Keenan gives it a sparkle that makes it stand apart from the others. With the electronic pulses and glittering synths, Today This Year is sonically sound while still paying homage to the great singer/songwriters before him.

If you're in the mood for some genre-bending music, spin tracks 2, 5, 7 and 4.
