San Francisco-based Vetiver's summer album The Errant Charm, released this past June, follows in much the same style of their 2009 indie-breakthrough album Tight Knit, but demonstrates that frontman Andy Cabic is exploring new limits for both his vocal range and song depth. After the band's origins in the freak folk movement alongside close associate Devendra Banhart, they moved toward a gentler, more accessible style that is best enjoyed floating gently through your open windows on a sleep summer day. Where Tight Knit seemed almost too gentle, Cabic has explored a slightly more experimental style on this new album while still maintaining the accessible and dreamy "charm" that has made his sound popular among the indie scene. Enjoy these:
