The Wild Feathers are in "Stereo"

The song is the opening number on the band's first new album in close to three years, "Sirens," arriving Oct. 5. Shooter Jennings produced the disc.

"'Stereo' is the first song we recorded for the record, but it was the last song written," said The Wild Feathers co-founding bassist/singer Joel King. "It began as an instrumental soundcheck jam while on tour, and we knew we had to make it a finished song before we traveled to LA to record with Shooter.We loved the idea of an explosive harmony/chorus right up front in the song, then followed by fun musical idiosyncrasies throughout. Lyrically, it struggles with the duality of life. How can life be both beautiful and depressing at the same time? If nothing is bad, how do you know when it's good?"

The songs "Don't Know" and the first single, "Sanctuary" previously were released. A live performance of the latter track – filmed at The Cabin in downtown Park City, Utah for Toyota and SiriusXM's "Sounds of the Road" series – is streaming now at YouTube.

The band consists of Ricky Young,Taylor Burns, Ben Dumas, Brett Moore and King. Founded in 2010 by Young, King and Burns, The Wild Feathers have put out four studio albums, a rarities release and a live album recorded at Nashville's Ryman Auditorium, fusing Americana, country, folk, heartland rock and blues.
