TOPIC: Orchestral Indie Recommendations?

Orchestral Indie Recommendations? 2 years 4 months ago #9927

I've been hooked on Sufjan-esque music lately (pre-Age of Adz, that is).

Groups like Ah Holly Fam'ly, Typhoon, The Welcome Wagon, Ohbijou, Hey Marseilles, Broadcast 2000, etc.

Any similar groups/musicians/artists that you guys can recommend? Thanks!

Do not misunderstand our silence for rejection.

It is merely laziness.

not certain if this is a no-brainer but owen pallett (final fantasy if you go back past his latest album, all of it's fantastic). also s. carey, lost in the trees, secret cities, and patrick wolf is definitely orchestral but a little more abrasive.

hate to do the self promotion thing (alas, i suppose that's one of the reasons im here)..

some tracks i've done have some orchestral elements to them,
the main ones being...

babygiraffe.bandcamp.com/track/heres-your-horizon
babygiraffe.bandcamp.com/track/first-train

as far as other artists, not an 'indie' artist, but you simply cannot beat the arrangements in the first 4 Scott Walker albums..

I've also heard there's this band called 'the suburbs' or something...their earlier stuff has many string pieces to it.

more of a poppy style than what you're looking for probably but none the less still
a very orchestral band, make sure you stay for the trumpet solo.

My problem with this request is that although I know a lot of bands that like to use a lot of instruments in novel or unusual ways, I don't know many 'indie' bands using orchestral instruments in a classical style..

And I'm thinking the crux of the question falls around orchestral instruments in a classical style. :dry:

I could be wrong..
