Saw them 5 or 6 times and Glasto was disappointing, the Pyramid stage was just to big for them, plus Lily was on after so we were surronded by unappreciative teenagers, it would've made sense to put them higher on the bill at the Other or Park stage.

If you like Fleet Foxes you also need to check out Local Natives, they are simply amazing.

Do they have any albums in the pipe line?

I couldn't find anything on Amazon!

They have their Sun Hands EP out!!! Smile

You can buy it through Rough Trade, I am going to buy a stack and just randomly hand them out to people to make them listen.

There is a stunning Talking Heads cover of 'Warning Sign' on there too

Split topic as these Local Native fellas sound good enough to earn their own thread
