About — The artist
Daniel Victor Snaith (born 29 March 1978) is a Canadian musician. He has released 11 studio albums since 2000 and has recorded and performed under the stage names Caribou, Manitoba and Daphni.
The Caribou album Andorra (2007) was awarded the 2008 Polaris Music Prize, and the Caribou album Swim (2010) was a shortlisted nominee for the 2010 Polaris Music Prize and was named the Best Album of 2010 by Resident Advisor. Our Love (2014) was also shortlisted for the 2015 Polaris Music Prize and was nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Dance/Electronic Album.
During live Caribou performances, Snaith is joined by his longtime bandmates, Ryan Smith (guitar, keyboards), John Schmersal (bass, keyboards) and Brad Weber (drums). Regarding their performances as a four-piece, Snaith stated: "The whole idea is it's not just me, and it's not just hired guns. The live show is its own thing and they're a proper band – in the sense that we're all equally part of it."
