It’s that time again. A band I didn’t know about before, but should have known. Vetiver, the brainchild of San Francisco singer/songwriter Andy Cabic, creates dream-like folk pop full of sweeping moods and introspective lyrics.
Tight Knit is the fourth LP from Vetiver. If the following single is representative of the rest of the album, then we expect Vetiver to make a splash in 09.
“Everyday” – Vetiver from Tight Knit
Tight Knit will be released on February 17, 2009 on SubPop Records.
Recorded in Sacramento at The Hangar and in Los Angeles at Melva, Tight Knit was produced by longtime Vetiver collaborator Thom Monahan. Accompanying Cabic were Sanders Trippe on guitar, Kevin Barker on guitar, Otto Hauser on drums, Brent Dunn on bass and guest musicians including The Shins‘ Eric Johnson (also of Fruit Bats) Jonathan Wilson, “Farmer” Dave Scher, and Adam Peters.
