Acoustic Post-Rock??

[WeHuntKings]

So, I've been digging back into Pelican again recently with a renewed autumnal fervor, and I find myself listening to their acoustic tracks A LOT. Are there bands that do this sound almost exclusively, and maybe expand on it a bit more? It really fits my mood these days.

Me and my fiance are playing both of these tracks at our wedding in April. She absolutely loves Pelican. If I can, I'd like to learn one of these and play it for her at the wedding

That is so sweet. Congratulations to you both, that sounds like it will be an AWESOME wedding.

Thanks dude

I introduced her to Pelican probably about 3-4 years ago and she's been listening to them non-stop since. I felt it was only right that I try to learn one of the songs for her

AND SHES LETTING ME DO SOUND. So now my little doom rig will be blasting a wedding playlist! haha

Those were gorgeous. Close to what I had in mind, but not quiiite the same though.

and other than that there is Harris Newman: http://rateyourmusic.com/release/album/harris_newman/accidents_with_nature_and_each_other/
If you can get a hold of it that album is so fucking good.

Beyond that I am kind of drawing a blank
