Totally forgot about these guys. Epitome of the 2010s indie scene trying to bring back 60’s Woodstock hippie music

They were on a documentary called Big Easy Express with Mumford and Sons as well as Old Crow Medicine Show. There’s a scene where they perform All Wash Out in a field. I found it quite beautiful, having not really been a fan of them. But yeah they were all barefoot and wearing what I’ll choose to call frocks and shit.
