Band of Horses formed in 2004 after the breakup of frontman Ben Bridwell’s previous band Carissa’s Wierd [sic]. The band released their first LP, Everything All the Time, in 2006 and quickly followed it with Cease to Begin in 2007. They are still active to this day, though Bridwell remains the only constant and the band has experienced numerous lineup changes.
The band’s 2011 LP Infinite Arms was nominated for a Grammy. It was the first not on their original label, Sub Pop. Since then, Band of Horses has continued to grow in notoriety with additional major-label releases and worldwide tours.

Another variety show, no particular theme. It was set to be a sunny weekend, and that meant hitting the road. After a late Friday night at the station, I woke up early, grabbed my bike and went on a solid 10 mile ride. It was the first of the sort for 2012; the first of many. I need to get in shape for the 200 mile Seattle to Portland ride in July.

Let me tell you a story. In 2007 some notable things happened. I attended the annual music festival SXSW (the image above is of myself and The Lovely Sparrows’ Shawn Jones, taken by Abandoned Love Records/Virgin Of The Birds’ Jon Rooney), I grew a mustache, and I met a beautiful girl named Andi at the Capitol Hill Block Party. We hit it off and ditched the after-party to get a sprite (her) and coffee (me) at Denny’s in Ballard (sadly no longer there) at 1:30am. I still have the mustache and I’m still dating Andi. A lot of pretty notable things happened that year, and a lot of great releases came out…

On June 6, 2006, FensePost went live. Since its inception, I’ve written more than 1,000 album reviews and countless features, track reviews, live reviews, and video reviews. My collection has grown exponentially. I have a room in my house devoted entirely to records. CDs go in the living room and I’m out of shelving space.
