It’s always a warm day for Seattle’s indie-folk darlings, Fleet Foxes. In the band’s latest video, supporting new single “Grown Ocean”, off the group’s eagerly anticipated sophomore effort, Helplessness Blues, director Sean Pecknold captures the band as a traveling family. As a result, the Super 8mm video cuts resemble a video scrapbook of sorts; it’s like we’re watching family videos of Pecknold & Co.. The result just works – really well.
Helplessness Blues is due out May 3rd (via Sub Pop/Bella Union).
