We caught up with Indigo Girls' Amy Ray at this summer's Eaux Claires fest to find out about a favorite new band from her hometown.

Chris Riemenschneider

"A band I've really been amazed by from Atlanta is Algiers. They're political and topical, but that's not all they do, and their singer is just this really captivating guy with a very unique approach and powerful voice. They blow me away, especially in concert."
