This band has completely captivated me over the past few months. I finally picked up their latest album, Winter Hymn Country Hymn Secret Hymn last week and it's been in my cd player ever since. I love how they integrate elements of jazz, pop, and ambient to create a very unique sound. They're generally labeled a post-rock band, but I think that they defy categorization. Sweet acoustic melodies, jazzy drums, and subdued trumpet playing? Hell yes baby.
For some samples, I would recommend:
Fredericia
Auberg Le Mouton Noir
Ontario Plates
Soul and Onward
Check them out if you haven't already. I guess they can be considered an acquired taste but once you "get" them, they're utterly fantastic.
