										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="Standard"><a href="http://www.citystatesmusic.com/" target="_blank">City States</a> are a Chicago-based band who make “strange, forward-thinking art-pop”. Led by 34 year-old Joel Ebner, City States have just released their debut album, <em>Geography</em>. The album is influenced by the last 35 years of art-rock, from Eno’s <em>Another Green World</em> to more recent work by Radiohead and The Antlers. It was mixed by John McEntire of Tortoise and The Sea &amp; Cake.</p>
<p class="Standard">Halfway through the recording process, Ebner’s father sadly passed away, and so the album took on a new focus. The track ‘To Remember’is based on an eulogy Ebner gave at his father’s funeral which addressed their relationship via a Fender Jaguar that his father bought back in the 60s.</p>
