It's called The Children. I think they also might be playing at that festival. I'd post their myspace, but since I don't have 15 posts yet I can't post urls. They're pretty good though, kinda a local legend around here. You could probably classify it as post-rock.

The Drift has been a highlight for me recently especially with the Jazz tinges. Well worth a listen and a little different to what has become an oversaturated genre.

Anyone?

I'm always on the look out for string heavy bands, whether they be post rock or not.

Fantastic album.

oh hell yes. that is exactly what i needed.

acquiring now. many thanks, jackhammer!

edit - i can confirm that all the tracks on the album are this good. it's hard to classify - lots of downtempo and trip hop elements, lots of strings, great samples... and it's just one guy!

seems he's part of Sunday Munich too, who i just discovered yesterday. coincidence?

anyway thanks again, great recommendation :D

Fan of Mogwai, Sigur Ros, Godspeed You! Black Emperor, etc.

MEE LIKEEEEE

good call

That was great. Anybody want to send me PM for this? Really looking forward to hearing the rest of this album.

I'll take a link if anyone has one. Sounds promising.
