Vetiver - Tight Knit

[copied from Amazon.com]
"[Tight Knit] represents a summation of the different styles and directions heard on past Vetiver releases while introducing some unexpected twists. Their tunes have been described as "dreamy, gentle songs that George Harrison would have written in some sunny country garden." This is a layered and rich record, with subtleties and nuances that reveal themselves with repeated listening."


It is hard to believe that Vetiver is only now signing with a larger and more respectable label [Sub Pop]. It's not, however, hard to believe that this is the album to do it, as Tight Knit fits in easily with the rest of the "Best of 2009 [so far...]" list.

Sounding as though Devendra Banhart sang for a band comprised of memebers of Spoon and Okkervil River, Vetiver is a wonderful new find.
