No Ali? :P

My Morning Jacket includes a member that was my neighbor growing up. (Louisville)

Interesting thread, though I don't know if it's allowed.

I never know Cunninlynguists were from KY. I guess I never really considered KY to be that south since I'm from Florida, but cool I guess.

Yep, they are. Kentucky is the Mid-South. Southern and Midwestern rolled into one.

I remember finding this guy on youtube a while ago. His album is pretty cool to listen to, but watching him live on video is better.

Yeah, I guess I just figured from Southernunderground that they were from Texas or Georgia or maybe a Carolina. Props to KY on this one.
