CAPYBARA

ARTIST / BAND: CAPYBARA

MP3: "Birthday Song"

ALBUM: Try Brother

FILE UNDER: Freakout folk-pop

LABEL: The Record Machine

INFO: The debut release of Kansas City band Capybara is filled to the brim with jangly synth melodies, light falsetto harmonies, and a syncopated percussive style that perpetually threatens to start a raucous party. Try Brother, self-produced in the Spring of 2009 in the mountains of northern New Mexico, blends earnest eyes-wide-open lyrics with delicate multi-instrumental arrangements. Their style draws on many influences, evoking classical chamber pop, down-home banjo folk rock, and soaring indie riffs in equal measures.
