Devendra Banhart’s new album What Will We Be is just out, and not bad.

I just gave it a listen; it’s pretty fun, kind of like summer barbecue music for ratty youth. There is very little of the somberness of, say, Cripple Crow, and also not much outside Banhart’s usual musical territory. But he’s continuing to polish and perfect his style, and the album is a strong, polished and mature effort from the artist. I dig it!
