Robin Pecknold brings light to the bleakest of winters with Fleet Foxes' A Very
Lonely Solstice, a 13-track career spanning collection recorded in December
2020, at Brooklyn, NY's St Ann & the Holy Trinity Church
The recording was originally broadcasted as a live-stream event on the winter solstice
of 2020, just days after New York declared a state of emergency tightening
restrictions again in response to increasing COVID-19 cases. Pecknold describes the
set as "me by myself on the longest night of the year... honoring the loneliness of
2020 with a nylon string and some songs new and old." Fans worldwide tuned in while
quarantined at home, finding solace and a sense of community in a period of extreme
isolation.
Much of 'A Very Lonely Solstice' showcases a solo focus on Pecknold who offers up
acoustic arrangements of fan- favorite songs spanning Fleet Foxes' catalog.
Selections cover all four of the band's studio albums, including their 2008 self-titled
debut album ("Tiger Mountain Peasant Song") to 2011's Helplessness Blues ("Blue
Spotted Tail") and 2017's Crack-Up ("If You Need To, Keep Time On Me"), all the way to
their latest GRAMMY- nominated release, Shore. Resistance Revival Chorus joins
Pecknold on Shore tracks "Wading In Waist-High Water" and "Can I Believe You." Also
featured: a cover of Nina Simone's "In The Morning" and a rearrangement of the
traditional "Silver Dagger."
