The Hold Steady'sfourth albumStay Positive(2008) served as an excellent progression for the best bar band in indie rock and featured a much more adventurous sound to which the group credits producerJohn Agnellowho also helmed their 2006 breakthrough release,Boys And Girls In America. The album sees the band include more diverse instrumentation alongside their bar-room rock, including mandolin, harpsichord, strings and horns.
