Hamilton Leithauser's voice sounds older than its years. The singer of The Walkmen adds an experienced rasp to the band, and if there's any innocence to counterbalance, you'd have to strain to get a glimpse. Leithauser has often been compared to Bob Dylan (when Bob Dylan was at his best); a barstool baritone with a troublesome tone. The Walkmen are just about to put out their fifth album, You and Me, and in support of that they'll be playing Bowery Ballroom early next week [tickets]. This week Leithauser told us a little about how the Chinatown bus played a role in their latest release.
