Mellow soul-searching indie-pop with folky/country elements. Trio with male vocals, reasonable harmonies, and occasional country twang. It's quite varied -- they'll even break out the keyboards and sci-fi effects for occasional surprises (2,12).
1- Piano and vocal, slowish and nostalgic
2- Mid/fast; a minor-key chase-scene rocker.
3- Snappy midtempo rock, a toe-tapper.
4- Lush vocals and a half-spoken story. Rolling midtempo, pretty.
5- Country twang. Catchy tune that's mostly spare, then rocks out for the ending.
6- Piano song: Spare, midtempo, kind of pretty
7- Barroom piano; a folky love song
8- Mid/fast and spare
9- Depression-era folkie sound. Midtempo.
10- Pretty pop, a flowery '60s feel. Off-key vocals. SEGUES into:
11- *FCC* ... Spacey guitar swirls and other electronics. Slow.
12- Funk! With garagey percussion, deep-voiced chorus, falsetto vocs later ... a total surprise.
