Robin Pecknold of Fleet Foxes

Robin Pecknold, lead singer and guitarist from Fleet Foxes just posted three new acoustic songs online. You can have them for free by clicking here. In Robin's words "One is a duet with my friend Ed Droste from the amazing band Grizzy Bear [I'm Losing Myself], one is just a new solo jam [Derwentwater Stones], and one is a cover [Where is my Wild Rose, a song from 1974 by NZ folk singer Chris Thompson]." Enjoying the superbly titled Derwentwater Stones and wondering if their is any Lake District connection? The stripped back sound of Pecknold is a warming gift ahead of Fleet Foxes second album 'Helplessness Blues' due out on May 3rd this year.
