Chicago band Company Of Thieves once had the most perfectly succinct bio ever: “We met, we write, we’re trying.” It’s a likeably humble attitude from a likeably hard-working band, but unlike 99 percent of likeably hard-working bands, “we’re trying” actually translated into a record deal. After signing the group, Wind-up Records re-released 2007’s Ordinary Riches earlier this year. It’s a surprisingly mature record, though maybe that’s just due to Genevieve Schatz’s breathy voice. It recalls Regina Spektor’s, though Company Of Thieves plays a more straightforward type of alt-pop.
