Fleet Foxes
http://www.myspace.com/fleetfoxes

FLEET FOXES is a throwback to the glory days of folk rock, but not in a bad way.   They vocalize and harmonize with a delightful 60s style, but don’t merely copy or clone. They mix things up with their own distinct musical arrangement and styling, taking the older style and adding a little modern edge to it. Echo sweetens the vocals and guitars meander through a musical landscape of deep visuals and harmonies. The Seattle based quintet describes its music as “baroque harmonic pop jams”.

If this sounds like a “far out” review, it’s just because FLEET FOXES warrants it. They are very groovy and calm. Their musical style follows suit and is ideal for a long drive in the country or city – going nowhere with nothing in particular to do. Roam, Baby. Roam.
