Vetiver coming to Silver Moon Brewing

Thursday, June 25th, 2009, 4:19 pm by Ben Salmon

Now this is sweet! According to an e-mail blast from Silver Moon booking guru Cassie Moore, the excellent folk-pop band Vetiver will perform at the Bend pub on July 31.

Silver Moon may have hosted a band or three with a bigger national profile than this one, but not many. Vetiver is tight with freak-folk kingpin Devendra Banhart and a longtime favorite within that scene, though their recent work has crept toward a more pastoral, hazy pop sound. The band’s newest release, “Tight Knit,” was released by Sub Pop Records in February to generally favorable reviews. Ye ol’ Pitchfork said the album is “built with a keen ear for detail, be it a subtle dose of pedal steel or a gently rippling guitar effect, and it features (frontman Andy Cabic’s) most consistently engaging batch of songs to date.”

Here’s the video for “Everyday” from “Tight Knit” for your sampling purposes:
