and became The Wild Feathers. The young band spent the next year writing and defining their sound and touring around the
country, sharing the stage with Delta Spirit, Surfer Blood and The Heavy, even landing an opening spot on Paul Simon's 2011 fall

reshapes it in a way that is both unique and modern. « hide |
