Vetiver: Video for “Everyday”

Vetiver is both a band and a type of grass native to India. In India, people use vetiver to cool their houses down–apparently it absorbs moisture and acts as a kind of crazy plant air conditioner.

Vetiver has recently signed to Sub Pop and made a new album called Tight Knit, lauded for its classic rock undertones. You can here California pop, and taunt, folky guitar that might remind you of Bob Dylan. It’s gorgeous and mesmerizing.
