Second album from The Wooden Birds. Poppy, catchy, indie, dream-like songs with a clipped percussion that permeates throughout. It’s got a slight country feel as well. Led by Andrew Kenny (American Analog Set and Broken Social Scene) with Leslie Sisson (AmAnSet, Matt Pond PA, etc.) and Matt Pond (current A-File). Instrumentation of guitar, bass, drums, male and female vocals, harmonizing. No FCC’s.

*My Favorites*: 2, 7, 8, 9, 12.
