Fleet Foxes



As of late, I've been listening to Fleet Foxes quite a bit, and they are wonderful. Their folk/rock sound is beautiful and completely calming, and each of their songs has some novel talent to offer. If you're a daydreamer like me, then you will have a field day with this album. The music makes you feel as if you should be living in a forest and chatting away with all of its little woodland creatures, like a modern day Disney princess (at least that's how I feel).

It was ridiculously difficult to choose one song to showcase their talent, and I decided on "Sim Sala Bim" because I believe it to contain a little bit of everything I adore about Fleet Foxes: gorgeous harmonies, a nice acoustic sound, and a tune that reminds me of a gypsy's theme music. This ensemble knows how to make incredible music, and I hope you enjoy them.
