Fleet Foxes have been away for ‘quite a while’, but with those festival dates across the summer, we’re well aware we should be expecting something new from the band pretty soon.
That ‘soon’ might be closer than we think, after Robin Pecknold took to Instagram for an impromptu sort of Q&A.
Apparently their forthcoming album is 11 tracks and 56 minutes long, and is described as a “car, Maxed, road trip, sunset” record. It’s a few months away, but we should expect track five to arrive imminently.
So that’s nice. Thanks, Rob mate.
