Forget it, Washington and Brooklyn. Oregon is becoming the center a new music revolution. The Decemberists and M. Ward may get all of the Northwestern glory, but Blind Pilot are close behind. Part Sigur Ros and part Fleet Foxes, this Portland-based band puts a contemporary psychedelic spin on an otherwise traditional, acoustic indie-folk setup. The production is so precise and so pristine that it’s tough to imagine how they pulled off a West Coast tour on their bikes in 2009, but “We Are the Tide” is evidence that they have every intention of developing their sound: folk songs reaching for the stars.
WATCH Blind Pilot perform “New York” live in the studio.
