A Song for your Sunday: Local Natives

I’m excited about the band Local Natives.  Their first album Gorilla Manor was just released.  I love their multipart harmonies and the way their songs seem to build momentum as they play.  Take a listen to their song “World News.”  This live recording isn’t the best, but you’ll get the idea and a feel for the group.  And here is another, the tune “Sun Hands.”
