Featherwest is Eccentric, IndieTronica meets Wonky Pop. “Loving anything weird, alternative to mainstream, we make our very own slightly odd and off centre sounds combined with lyrics that romanticise on less comfortable areas of the human condition. All in all we kinda wish we lived in Twin Peaks.”
