Vetiver grows in a "less is more" chaparral where simplicity offers ample room to wander. Strongly fertilized by traditional acoustic music, and more subtly cross-pollinated by the sparseness of "minimalism," with its bare suggestions of melodies that the listener fills in for himself, Vetiver gracefully navigates folk and pop savannahs with ease. Led by chief songwriter Andy Cabic (ex-Raymond Brake), along with violinist Jim Gaylord, cellist Alissa Anderson, and sometimes member Devendra Banhart (who share   [ read more ]

VINYL FORMAT. Insound Staff Pick - 2008! Vetiver's fourth full-length represents a summation of the different styles and directions heard on their past 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."

VINYL FORMAT. Two years after the highly acclaimed To Find Me Gone, Andy Cabic and Vetiver return with a new album of old songs, all hidden treasures, entitled Thing of the Past. Think of it as Cabic's fully realized mix tape to the world--a collection of some of his favorite songs from some of his favorite records--but presented, sequenced, and in this case performed by Cabic himself, with a little help from his friends far and wide. Produced by Thom Monahan and Cabic, Thing Of The Past was recor   [ read more ]

VINYL FORMAT. To Find Me Gone is the second album by Andy Cabic's ever-evolving band Vetiver, released two years after the debut self-titled release. Andy has since toured the world, usually as a member of Devendra Banhart's band, and sometimes even with Vetiver. In those two years, Vetiver has expanded into a full-on singer-songwriter band/project, aided and abetted by some of the best players (and usually his best friends) in the extended family of which Cabic finds himself a member.

VINYL FORMAT. This limited-edition 7-inch single, "Hey Doll Baby" b/w "Miles Apart" possesses the rich Vetiver treatment that makes the special songs the band's own. "Hey Doll Baby" is already an established concert favorite, beloved by Vetiver's burgeoning fan base. The B-side of the 7-inch, "Miles Apart," by AR Kane (the same duo who wrote "Pump Up the Volume"), provides a strong taste of Cabic's love of '80s UK alternative pop.
