Fleet Foxes: "Grown Ocean" (Live On Jools Holland) (Video)

The second studio album by Fleet Foxes, Helplessness Blues, is almost upon us, but while we wait for its May 3 release date here’s a chance to see one of its standout tracks performed live. The band appeared on Later with Jools Holland in the U.K. last night (April 19) where they played the upbeat closer to the record, “Grown Ocean.” A couple of YouTube commenters note that this wasn’t the easiest performance for the band, with two broken strings occurring during the song,  but it scarcely matters as this is a fine bittersweet number to add to this bands catalog of similarly themed tracks.
