Finally! It’s been almost three years since The Lovely Feathers paid us a visit. The long overdue dates are as follows:

09/29 Tasty World, Athens, GA
09/30 Club Downunder (Florida State University), Tallahassee, FL
10/02 TBA, Atlanta, GA
10/03 The Duke Coffehouse (Duke University), Durham, NC

Now I must wrestle with the uncertainty of whether or not my finances will allow me to spend a night dancing to the tunes of my favorite Canadians, but such is the life of a broke college kid. If it’s going to take them another three years to come around, I can give up groceries for a week and splurge. So worth it.

From their latest album Fantasy of the Lot, a sweet song about a dude who can no longer get it up. Yep.

And some of my favorite songs from their EP My Best Friend Daniel and debut album Hind Hind Legs, both of which I highly recommend you purchase:

Iceberg (from My Best Friend Daniel)
Photocorners (from My Best Friend Daniel) – There’s a newer version of this song on Hind Hind Legs, but I personally prefer this one. Faster, louder, catchier.
I Really Like You (from Hind Hind Legs) – Once again, I prefer this version to the one on My Best Friend Daniel. Wait for the “FAKE FAKE ABSOLUTELY FAKE FAKE FAKE ABSOLUTELY FAKE”. So good.
