Dan Snaith's Caribou project, to borrow a line from another Canadian songwriter, has been a zigzagging journey through the past. He was most entrenched in the present moment on his 2001 debut Start Breaking My Heart, but even that record's soft-focus, post-Aphex Twin electronica seemed pulled from two or three years earlier. And now, with his latest album Andorra, Snaith finally and fully inhabits the 1960s, specifically the branch of sun-kissed pop that was aware of psychedelia but chose not to abandon the pillow-soft pleasures of AM radio, of the Zombies, Free Design, the Mamas & Papas, and, of course, the Beach Boys.
Caribou moves to ANDORRA to continue his electronic folk concoctions, and with the jangly "Melody Day," he ensconces himself firmly in the 60s. "Sandy" continues that feel, while "She's The One" brings in a jittery romance. Desiree" goes from a whisper to a full-on harmonic build, and "Eli" offers pure, warm psych-pop. The gentle "Irene" stays quiet and understated, before "Niobe" gurgles with smooth electronics as it morphs over its long run time
Caribou's 2007 album Andorra won the 2008 Polaris Music Prize, and his DJ-influenced 2010 album Swim was on the 2010 Polaris Music Prize shortlist. In June 2013, Snaith's studio album, Jiaolong, released under the moniker Daphni, was longlisted for the 2013 Polaris Music Prize. Caribou's 2014 album Our Love received the IMPALA Album of the Year Award. In 2015, Up In Flames was selected by fans to be one of the ten albums re-issued by The Leaf Label as part of the label's 20th anniversary celebrations Personal life.
