Horse Feathers – So It Is with Us (LP Vinyl)

Portland's Horse Feathers built their reputation on intimate chamber folk, but *So It Is with Us* found Justin Ringle pushing toward a fuller, more atmospheric sound without losing the melancholy at the project's core. Released on Kill Rock Stars, the album sits at a crossroads between sparse acoustic songwriting and something more expansive, the kind of record that rewards headphone listening on a long drive.
