来自美国西雅图的五人乐队，出身于著名厂牌Sub Pop，有着柔软和谐的声音。将教堂音乐，民谣和摇滚结合在一起，犹如唱着赞美诗。Fleet Foxes对Rock和Folk都有着很强的理解力，但是他们并不是在重复一段历史，而是重新创造一种失去的声音。在他们的音乐形式中你可以发现出Appalachian民间音乐, 古典摇滚乐, 美国乡村, 甚至南加利福尼亚的流行音乐，如果说他们的音乐和谁有所相像的话，那么Modest Mouse, Built to Spill和the Shins的影子应该不少。他们的音乐有强烈的美国城市特色，你可以想象这张他们的音乐是在奥斯汀，芝加哥或者布鲁克林的某个地方创造出来。Seattle's Fleet Foxes are lead by vocalist/guitarist Robin Pecknold, who grew up on records by Bob Dylan, Neil Young, the Zombies, and the Beach Boys. Following the path of baroque pop, Fleet Foxes also include Skyler Skjelset (guitars), Bryn Lumsden (bass), Nicholas Peterson (drums), and Casey Wescott(keyboards). After playing only a handful of shows, the band received label interest and caught the attention of local producer Phil Ek (Built to Spill, the Shins). Ek worked with the band on their Sun Giant EP, which arrived on Sub Pop in spring 2008. The full-length Ragged Wood arrived that summer.
