And now for something completely different from Ben Gibbard (Death Cab, Postal Service) amongst this holiday season. Gone was the solo acoustic guitar last night when Gibbard performed with Los Angeles mariachi troupe Trio Ellas (huh? there’s about tres trios here!). Gibbard rearranged Something’s Rattling from the singer’s solo album, Former Lives, and though the performance goes on a bit too long, we love the comparative daring-do by Gibbard and the ensemble delivery. Bravo!
