Aubadecast 2.3: River of OrchPop

A collection of choons that venture outside simple guitar-bass-drums instrumentation -- sometimes just with a few other instruments for texture, sometimes dispensing with the formula completely. It turns out Jay Crocker made it onto this playlist twice, but I decided to keep him because a) they're both great songs, b) they have awesomely different textures, c) they're from different albums, and d) I included both Beirut and Andrew Bird, and they're, like, the same dude vocally anyhow.
