Museé Mécanique: Hold this Ghost (Frog Stand Records)
Indie, folk rock, Andrew Bird, Sufjan Stevens
This five-piece is not from France but from Portland, OR, and this is their debut album. Accordion, keyboards, strings and bells plus melancholic voices create mesmerizing tunes that will take you to graveyards, empty streets, and other places populated with old polaroids and ghosts (like the Wright brothers’ in track 3, “The Propellors”). Perfect album title and perfect band name: Museé Mécanique is a museum in San Francisco of old music boxes. And this band sounds like a giant symphonic music box.
