Fleet Foxes - Sun Giant + White Winter Hymnal - La Blogotheque Take Away Show

CurrentMusic
This is the first video of a partnership where Current TV will air exclusive Take Away Shows from La Blogotheque.

La Blogotheque founder Chryde descripes the shooting of the video:

It was in February, before their album was out, before they were praised by Pitchfork and others (including us). They had long hair, they were smiling, living in a van hippie-style, and they waited for Nate Chan and me on the parking lot of a McDonald’s, in an area of San Francisco hamming the flower power nostalgia. Pecknold was excited just like a kid after he found an abandoned gymnasium in a street behind. They played in the grass, hummed while walking. It was the before-the-success band. Carefree, unpressured, no heavy recognition.

Other Take Away shows to follow include The Dodos, Grand Archives, Emily Jane White and Quasi.
