Fleet Foxes

Nearly a year after the release of its long-awaited third record, Fleet Foxes is on top of the folk world once again. After a six-year wait between 2011’s Helplessness Blues and June’s Crack-Up, the Seattle-borne five-piece has stormed back onto the scene. As if the group’s choral harmonies and ethereal aura couldn’t get stronger, its Record Store Day release of two singles — “Crack Up (Choral Version)” and “In The Morning (Live in Switzerland)” — further embraces its now-famous rustic blend of folk and chamber pop. Tonight, the group plays the Benedum Center. Psych-folk group Amen Dunes, fresh off the March release of the acclaimed Freedom, will set the mood with symphonic, radiant melodies. -Alex McCann
