Dirty Projectors, one of probably many pale UK bands that I haven't dug into. Belle and Sebastian aren't generally my vibe for some reason, but I think do have a few songs I get on my Spotify radio from time to time

Ah, cheers for clearing that up :-)

I went through The Unbearable Whiteness of Indie article trying to guess your reference - B&S got the greatest wordcount IIRC.

Can't say I've heard of Dirty Projectors and their "use of attenuated 'afro' elements" - I'll chase it up, but often I prefer to see some back wash on the culture: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BOValSt7YOY https://youtu.be/tvY31eN3gtE?t=41

Dirty Projectors are a US band (from Brooklyn).

Oh ya I guess that was a simple inference mistake based on what they asked.

definitely worth a listen, saw them live around the time of Bitte Orca and they were incredible!
