Canasta October 19, 2012

Canasta songs are nothing if not eclectic; you'll hear everything from bouncy, horn-spiked ditties and sweeping, heart-breaking epics to moody, country-tinged narratives and rollicking, guitar-driven anthems. But what's constant is an emphasis on sophisticated songwriting, dramatic dynamics and meticulous orchestration that has won them comparisons to Arcade Fire, Belle & Sebastian, The Decemberists, The New Pornographers, Sufjan Stevens and Wilco.
