Fleet Foxes - A Very Lonely Solstice [Indie Exclusive, Clear]

Recorded on the winter solstice of 2020, A Very Lonely Solstice finds Robin Pecknold offering solace through song during one of the most isolating periods in recent memory. Performed live at Brooklyn’s St. Ann & the Holy Trinity Church and streamed to fans quarantined around the world, the set became a communal moment of reflection and warmth amid uncertainty.

The album spans Fleet Foxes’ career, reworking familiar songs into hushed, acoustic arrangements that highlight Pecknold’s voice, songwriting, and emotional clarity. The performance also includes a tender cover of Nina Simone’s “In The Morning” and a beautifully restrained take on the traditional “Silver Dagger,” further emphasizing the album’s contemplative tone.

Now released on vinyl for the first time, A Very Lonely Solstice preserves a fleeting yet powerful moment when music bridged distance, offering comfort, connection, and quiet beauty when it was needed most.
