"Sallie Ford has had quite the career. Since her band's inception in 2007, she's recorded three albums, toured around the globe, and written enough songs to make your head spin. And did we mention she's only 25?\n\nWhen the talented singer-songwriter stopped by the office to talk about their latest effort Untamed Beast, we were surprised to find that Sallie is just a down-to-earth twentysomething who shops at Modcloth, crushes on The Avett Brothers, and reads Teen Vogue on long road trips\u2014she just so happens to record buzzed-about music and occasionally open for Jack White, too. Check out what else she revealed while hanging out with us.\n\nWhat album made you decide you wanted to pursue music?\n\n \"I was listening to a lot of Cat Power when I first started wanting to do music\u2014all of her earlier records. I was also into Billie Holiday and Regina Spektor.\"\n\nWho would you most like to collaborate with?\n\n \"Tom Waits. And Father John Misty. I like him. Maybe he'll do a duet with me.\"\n\nWhat albums or songs do you have on heavy rotation right now?\n\n \"I really like Mac Demarco. He has a new record called 2. And I've been listening Ty Segall's new record. I've been listening to this band X, an old punk band from the eighties. Old punk is a lot more melodic than people would think. It's more just rock n' roll.\"\n\nWhat influences the band's sound the most?\n\n \"Can I give a really broad answer, like all females? I have so many, and it's always changing.\"\n\nWhat's been your band's biggest oh-my-gosh-this-is-really-happening moment?\n\n \"Being on Letterman! Also, getting to open for The Avett Brothers. It was really cool opening for Jack White, too. Touring in Europe has been really great, because we've been able to go by ourselves and there's been a great reaction.\"\n\nNow, stream their second single \"They Told Me\" and see the band live on their spring tour.\n\n"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
