Biography

Born in 1978, Dan Snaith recorded his first compositions as Manitoba. He put in a box two studio albums (Start Breaking My Heart and Up in Flames) under this pseudonym before being forced to change alias under the pressure of the frontman of punk band The Dictators, who could not stand to see his name so used... Caribou thus arose.
Influenced by krautrock and psychedelic pop music of the 1970s, he released The Milk of Human Kindness in 2005. It is Andorra , released in 2007, which still devotes it (Caribou wins the Canadian Polaris prize, in 2008, a year before Fucked Up ), while Sanah explores the more folk side of his psychedelism.
Waiting at the turn, Swim takes on almost a counterfoot and focuses on more electro music, a direct legacy of the 1980s.
