Vetiver was formed in
San Francisco in 2002. The band released their self-titled debut album in
2004 on the small indie folk label
DiCristina. Since the album's release, Vetiver has toured extensively, opening for and collaborating with
Devendra Banhart and
Joanna Newsom. Vetiver released another album,
To Find Me Gone, on DiCristina in 2006. Banhart and Cabic also launched their own label,
Gnomonsong Recordings, releasing
Jana Hunter's
Blank Unstaring Heirs of Doom in 2005 and ''There's No Home'' in 2007. The label also released in 2008 Vetiver's
Thing of the Past, a collection of cover songs that have influenced Cabic's aesthetic.
Sub Pop Records (US) and
Bella Union (UK) released Vetiver's
Tight Knit (2009)

Fleet Foxes,
The Shins,
Fruit Bats and
Wilco. Cabic's music has also been featured in numerous TV commercials, including an original song for Birds Eye. He also works as a composer, including the documentary
