When Robin Pecknold has released solo material in the past it’s been under his White Antelope moniker. Today’s sneak-released three-song EP is credited simply to Robin Pecknold, tweeted from his @FleetFoxes account, with one track featuring stylistic forefather (forelderbrother?) Ed Droste of Grizzly Bear. Robin says that these “mellow jams” are distinctly not Fleet Foxes songs, just three tunes he set to tape with his friend Noah in Los Angeles needing an avenue of dissemination. (Twitter to the rescue.) You can download his track with Droste, titled “I’m Losing Myself,” here, and be not surprised at how lovely their voices sound in harmony:
