Although Fleet Foxes have already got a new album out soon (great news for folkies everywhere), frontman Robin Pecknold has been very busy recently, taking to Twitter to announce a free EP of three solo tracks. With a Chris Thompson cover and a new song (‘Derwentwater Stones’), we really are being spoiled here, but the stand-out track is Pecknold’s collaboration with Grizzly Bear singer Ed Droste on ‘I’m Losing Myself’. Haunting yet utterly gorgeous harmonies and gentle guitar plucking abounds on this song, creating a thing of melancholic beauty that should be treasured by music lovers the world over. If you love folk, you will not be disappointed by Robin Pecknold’s simple yet powerful work. ‘I’m Losing Myself’ is one of three songs available to download for free from prettymuchamazing.com.
