DAVE RAWLINGS MACHINE

I first heard Dave Rawlings Machine in August 2009, they were one of 3 openers for Old Crow Medicine Show in Nashville.

Dave Rawlings Machine- Ruby (LIVE)
I love this song. Dave Rawlings Machine is composed of David Rawlings, Gillian Welch, as well as artists from Old Crow Medicine Show, Bright Eyes, and Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers.  On the debut album, Rawlings wrote 7 of the 9 songs, the other 2, "Monkey and the Engineer" written by Jesse Fuller and "Method Acting/Cortez the Killer" Written by Conor Oberst and Neil Young.  If you ever get a chance to buy this album please do, it is one of my top 5 favorite albums of all times.

BONUS:
Dave Rawlings Machine- Queen Jane Approximately
This song is not on "A Friend of a Friend" but I absolutely love this cover.  Originally by Bob Dylan from the "Highway 61 Revisited" album.
