Fleet Foxes Harmonize For La Blogothèque One More Time

A few months ago, Robin and his fellow Foxes helped La Blog celebrate at their second Takeaway Party, alongside the Dodos, Essie Jain, and others. The next morning Vincent Moon, probably bright eyed and manically bouncing off walls with ideas for another segment because dude does not sleep nor does he show visible signs of human fatigue, led the crew to the Grand Palais to film them doing "Sun Giant" in a field, and "Blue Ridge Mountain" in an abandoned wing of the Palais. Both have poetic effect, but the latter's vocals reverberating off the centuries-old rotunda is a particularly French delight.

that recording of Blue Ridge Mountains was excellent. Can't beat a bit of natural reverb.

Did I just search stereogum for "fleet foxes". I'm such a cliche
