ALBUM

A Different Ship (2012)

Released in May 2012, this record grew out of the band's experiences playing festival stages like Glastonbury, Bonnaroo, and Coachella, where their tight improvisational interplay had become a defining quality. The album captures a more locked-in, groove-oriented side of the band compared to their earlier work.
