Fleet Foxes are a five piece from Seattle currently attracting much attention on music web-sites Stateside for their music which they describe as "baroque harmonics" which is a mix of tight multi-part vocal harmonies accompanied by structured acoustic instrumentation which is folk in tone but rock in structure.
They have some of their current tracks available here and are about to start an American tour with an full album due for States release in June and in the UK in July.
Their current EP is only available on import via Amazon - but word is that that they are edging for time on the summer festival circuit in the UK.
thanks Tom - just listened to Drops in the River - wonderful stuff...
