Band of Horses' Steel Guitar Never Gets "Older"
From the first few fuzzy steel guitar notes on Band of Horses' "Older," you know you're about to hear a song ripe with emotion. Silky harmonies and a loping beat speak to an easy love, while the repeating lyrics describe it as one that never fades. But with the sadness in the guitar part, I wonder if this love has already moved on. Although it's reminiscent of the early Californian days of country-rock, "Older" is still moving the genre forward with a sound that might appeal to fans of bands like My Morning Jacket and Kings of Leon, as well as Eagles and Byrds buffs. Their latest album, Infinite Arms, keeps following that meandering path between country and indie rock and you can watch a couple of new videos on their website, but check out "Older" streaming on NPR Music's website, if only for that whining steel guitar. Somebody should write a song about how that sound never gets old.

Union Grove Music in Santa Cruz has had one of these in the front window for years, but I don’t think theirs is actually playable.
