If, like me, you’re a little slow to pick up on new music because you’re too busy listening to your other music, well, let me be the one to introduce Fleet Foxes to you, because they’re amazing. I’ve been hearing about them for a while now, but I hadn’t actually LISTENED to them until yesterday.

They make beautiful music that’s all at once spiritual, folksy, poppy, and beachy, with such sweet vocal harmonizing that I’m reminded of listening to Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young at the beach during high school summer vacation and feeling so grown up. Listening to Fleet Foxes makes me want to wear a crown of flowers in my hair and start a career in weaving natural fibers. If you like ’60s & ’70s folk and the more mellow side of indie rock, you will most definitely love these guys, too.

Download “White Winter Hymnal” by Fleet Foxes from Sub Pop Records.
