Ever heard of them? Which albums can you recommend? There's quite a few showing on Spotify. Maybe Ill just work through them all.

Heard this at the end of Jamie Cullum's show a few weeks ago, and just remembered to go and look it up on his website. It features Michael McDonald of the Doobie brothers/Steely Dan fame. Bloody ace track.

Veckatimest is a very enjoyable album. If you like Grizzly Bear, you may also like Animal Collective, Fleet Foxes (obviously), Deerhunter and the Dormouse Tribunal.

OK, not the last one. But you get the idea.

Try: Perro, Animal Hospital, Avett Brothers, Tired Pony, Port O Brien, Phosphoresent, Pedro (maybe try the album Fear and Resilience first), The National, Sufjan Stevens, Morning Benders, Memory Tapes (Try the Album Seek Magic) Lucas Renny, Lightening Dust, Le Loup (breathing rapture is an ace track)

Maybe look at Vivian Girls, and Warpaint as well...and Electralene....

Should keep you busy. 😀
