Fleet Foxes' Robin Pecknold discusses band's hiatus

​Taking to the group’s official Facebook page, Pecknold writes that while writing new songs he’s enrolled for at University in New York. “I never got an undergraduate degree,” he says. “This felt like the right time to both see what that was about and to try something new after a while in the touring / recording lifestyle.”

“But I’m working on songs and excited for whatever happens next musically, even if it’s down the line,” Pecknold adds. “Hope all is well out there.”

For anyone who’s curious, this is a short Fleet Foxes update - been a while! So, after the last round of touring, I decided to go back to school. I never got an undergraduate degree, and this felt like the right time to both see what that was about and to try something new after a while in the touring / recording lifestyle. I moved to New York and enrolled at Columbia, and I’ve mostly been doing that, but I’m working on songs and excited for whatever happens next musically, even if it’s down the line. Hope all is well out there.

Best,
Robin
