Horse Feathers have shared a demo of “Like Lavender”, recorded in one solitary take in a stairwell in NE Portland, ahead of the 20th anniversary reissue of “Words Are Dead” on August 28th via Kill Rock Stars. Justin Ringle wrote the song as he was crashing out of his old life in Idaho — a small portrait of a heartbroken young man.

Horse Feathers reissue their long out-of-print debut, “Words Are Dead”, on August 28th via Kill Rock Stars. Recorded in Portland in 2006 by the duo of Justin Ringle and Peter Broderick, the album returns fully remastered, on exclusive vinyl, with a replica of the original six-song demo CD. Hear “Finch on Saturday”, the first thing the band ever committed to tape.

Portland-based band Horse Feathers have announced the release of their forthcoming album Appreciation, listen to lead single “Without Applause” on which Ringle’s new rhythm section shows off their Northern Soul sensibilities.

Justin Ringle, the man behind all ten years of Horse Feathers, is back with a new album that sounds very different and greater than ever. Listen to ‘Violently Wild’ plus US Tour Dates.

Cynic’s New Year is a fragile beast with transitory fiddle, banjo, guitar and cello to cushion frontman Justin Ringle’s tentative laments and words of found wisdom.

Song of the Day is ‘Fit against the Country’, the first single taken from Horse Feathers forthcoming album ‘Cynic’s New Year‘ which is due out on April 17th.
