Hey, check out this Canadian indie band: Hey Rosetta!

They play a lot on the east coast of Canada and this new album is great. Kind of a Decemberists/Arcade Fire thing.

Hey Rosetta! is a six-piece Canadian indie rock band from St. John's, Newfoundland. Known for its energized live shows, the band create a massive, layered sound by incorporating piano, violin and cello into the traditional four-piece garage rock sound. After initially building popularity in their home province of Newfoundland, the band expanded their fan base to the entire east coast of Canada. They also have a following in the United States through play on the XM Satellite Radio station "The Verge".

The band members include Tim Baker (vocals, guitar, piano), Josh Ward (bass), Adam Hogan (lead guitar), and Phil Maloney (drums). The band also contains a string section normally consisting of Kinley Dowling (violin), and Romesh Thavanathan (cello), although other musicians substitute while on tour. Their influences include The Beatles and Jeff Buckley, while also incorporating the layered production of contemporary indie bands such as Arcade Fire and Hope of the States.
