FOX AND THE SOUND

SEPTEMBER 10TH, 2008

FOX AND THE SOUND

There’s music that makes you want to move, and then there’s music that makes you want to move to the woods and grow your hair long.

Fleet Foxes have us contemplating the latter. The five-man band from Seattle may not have grown up in the early Seventies, but they’ve sweetly synthesized its sound. Their self-titled debut album is an afternoon delight of five-part harmonies and guitar-driven melodies that conjure up country roads travelled in a VW van.

If that’s not nostalgic enough, the record is available on vinyl.

Fleet Foxes is also available in digital format at iTunes ($9.99). They bring their bearded selves to Vancouver, September 16, 2008 at Richard’s on Richards, tickets $15, available through Ticketmaster.
