Dreamy, Ethereal Even

Every once in a while, a song comes around which instantly grabs my attention. Last week, I heard a song from a band named Sunflower Bean, a young band which has been generating quite a bit of buzz. Easier Said Than Done has a dreamy-pop sound, all jangly guitars and ethereal vocals, backed by a muscular, though cymbal-y rhythm track:





The promotional video for the song has a great 'Goreyesque' vibe:





With all that marsh grass in the background, I'd guess that the video was recorded in the Gateway National Recreation Area. I sure hope the band saw some horseshoe crabs while they were making it.
