The new Fleet Foxes album, Helplessness Blues, is coming May 3rd and already getting a ton of buzz.
After all of the attention Fleet Foxes has received over the past few years, it is hard to believe they are only on their second album. They released their debut self-titled album in 2008 and people quickly fell for their beautiful folk music. I can’t stop listening to the title-track they released, “Helplessness Blues,” and it makes May 3rd seem like a very long to wait to hear the rest of the album.
Lucky for us, the day of the album release will also be the day they grace their hometown (Seattle!) with a show at the Moore Theatre. Sounds like May 3rd is going to be a good day. According to their website, they will have limited pre-sale for any show on their North American tour this morning (www.fleetfoxes.com).
