Fleet Foxes' Robin Pecknold Covers Judee Sill

That beaut of a song is called "Crayon Angels" and was filmed for a website called "Black Cab Sessions". The basic idea is one band, one song, and one take while riding in the back of a London taxi cab. Check out other bands takes here.

In addition to releasing two of my favorite records so far this year (Sun Giant EP and Fleet Foxes), these Pacific Northwesterners are are making a ton of noise here in the states and over seas. Their self-titled debut is challenging the likes of Coldplay for the #1 spot in the UK. Not to mention they are also opening up for Wilco on a couple of dates. Get to know these guys.

DC guys, if you leave your place right now, you can still catch their show tonight at the Black Cat.
