Lawrence Arabia is basically New Zealander James Milne. He has played with Feist and Okkervil River among others, and is currently in a band called BARB which counts Liam Finn as one of its members. He does a fine line in catchy well constructed songs and is worth getting to know fairly sharpish. From his 2009 album "Chant Darling" below are "Apple Pie Bed" and "The Beautiful Young Crew"
