Folk-Grass anyone?

                                                                       Horse Feathers


   The first time I heard horse feathers was just like the first time a woman was sweet enough to lick my coin purse(you know who you are).   shock followed by a deep pleasure.

    Horse feathers is one man (justin ringle) accompanied by an ever changing cast of musicians.   growing up in idaho he fronted several bands before moving to portland in the year of our lord 2004.  justin began playing open mic nights around portland on a regular basis, attracting talented locals to help fill out his songs.

   Horse Feathers recorded their debut album "words are dead"  in 2008 at miracle lake studios, followed by the 2007 release of "house with no home" and their more recent 2010 release of thistled spring.

  9. bands that always seem to have a rotating lineup always sound the most intresting to me.... especially when they release a new version of a old song ... but i digress, sounds good
