The Definite Articles are an orchestral rock project based in San Francisco, CA. Starting as a more string-based rock project, the band released Boy Wonder in 2008. Since then, the scope of the arrangements has expanded to include woodwinds and horns as well as piano and guitar. Their first full-length to showcase these additions, King Merriweather, was recorded at John Vanderslice's Tiny Telephone studio with the help of 30 musicians. It was released on November 19th, 2010.
WHITE CLOUD -
http://facebook.com/whitecloudband
"White Cloud has always done their own thing, which is admirable: the band members switch instruments mid-set, and build on one another’s qualities for some really stellar post-rock/shoegaze style jams. Together as one, this fresh pair of songs effloresce — building up those robust, reverb-happy guitar lines, bursting into rounds of vocals or a segmented dancy bassline." - The Bay Bridged
