About the Artist: A folk/indie group originating in Portland, Oregon, Blind Pilot released their debut album "3 Rounds and a Sound" in 2008, and has since released one other full album ("We Are the Tide"-2011). What started out as musical duo has since turned into a group consisting of Israel Nebeker (vocals/guitar), Ryan Dobrowski (drums/percussion), Luke Ydstie (upright bass/bass guitar/backing vocals), Kati Claborn (banjo/mountain dulcimer/ukulele/backing vocals), Dave Jorgensen (trumpet/keyboard), and Ian Krist (vibraphone). With strong folk influences and a unique array of musical instruments lending a hand, Blind Pilot has successfully created a sound that is wholly theirs and theirs alone. Nebeker's voice also helps set the band apart from most others. If you're looking for some great tunes to just sit back and enjoy life to, look no further than Blind Pilot.
Key Songs: "One Red Thread", "Half Moon", "The Story I Heard", "We Are the Tide", "Go On, Say It"
