seriously Josh Tillman, Robin Pecknold and Christian Wargo singing together sounds like a chorus of angels

[amysantee]

Just saw them live on their 2022 tour and I wish they had played this. So I’m hear listening to it.

[PhiladelphiaChurchIL]

I was there, I shed a tear.  J Tillman's fills during the ending section (unfortunately not on this video)  were incredible.  What an incredible band, could have easily came out and played 3 minute indie-folk pieces, but instead we were treated to movements.

[honeylishuss]

saw this live and it was one of the best things ive ever heard

[anjwht]

unbelievably beautiful. so pumped for the new stuff

[slothpastry]

I really hope they do return one day, even in a different context. I just want more of them.

J. Tillman's voice :, ) I miss his presence in fleet foxes

[takefive]

Love how Rob screams like if his going to breath like in 5:13 but the man does not get out of tune, never.

Fleet Foxes is a freaking genius band, i listen to really underground heavy Death Metal and when i want to slow it down and switch gears, i always put on F.F

[brentcusack]

Now that is how you 'live' 🙌🏻

[scottybeans]

thanks for finally putting this stuff up in high quality pitchfork

[ROBBIETHEMANGATSON]

The look on the drummers face at the end says it all

[nightnurse]

I miss hearing Josh’s voice in the harmony. What a perfect blend of voices.

[JJJameson.]

Just some anachronisms here, I retroactively love how you guys in the comments call him J Tillman

[kokaratsja]

mother john fisty on the drums😳i did not know

[RayasNegroOvejas]

He performed solo while he was with the Fleet Foxes too, not just as Father John Misty.

[Andarovin]

Crosby, Stills and Nash version 2.010

[uberstuff]
