The Wooden Birds (the moniker under which American Analog Set's Andrew Kenny performs) are one of those perfect little bands. You know the ones: the mellow, oh-so-adorable outfits that never seem to recieve the attention or acclaim they deserve because of their inoffensive nature. Magnolia, their debut album, contains twelve tracks that could come from any early Sam Beam record. Full of plodding acoustic stylings, ethereal vocals and beautiful female harmonies, it's easy to overlook this albums' shortcomings in originality and lose yourself in the honest, organic feel of the songs.
