The Wild Feathers

The Wild Feathers from Austin, TX, debuted last year with one of the best classic-sounding rock records of 2013, with a couple of singles that gained heavy rotation on American radios.

The band spent most of the year on the road, but that didn't stop them from releasing new songs: here's the cover of Canadian singer-songwriter Indio's hit-song from 1989 "Hard Sun", recorded live during a session for SiriusXM. Enjoy.

By the way, The Wild Feathers won the SiriusXM Best of 2013 Listener Poll for The Spectrum Best Song Discovery for "The Ceiling": congratulations!

"They're like if Led Zeppelin & The Band had a baby in Joshua Tree that grew up listening to Ryan Adams covering the Stones 70's country influenced songs": this is the intro to Austin's The Wild Feathers bio. This five-piece mix elements of rock, country, folk, blues, southern, Americana in a personal and fresh way.

Their debut self-titled album, produced in Nashville by Jay Joyce (Cage The Elephant, The Wallflowers, Little Big Town), drops tomorrow on Warner Bros Records and includes the singles "Backwoods Company", "The Ceiling" and "Hard Wind" (click on the titles to watch videos).

RollingStone's website is premiering the album with the streaming of all the songs, so don't miss the chance to get into one of the most interesting band of the genre.
