They run in the same orbit as Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros, Timber Timbre, Andrew Bird, Junip and Villagers, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into John Legend, Panic! at the Disco, Cyndi Lauper and Avicii, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation.
