Local Natives are a five-piece group from Los Angeles. For over a decade, they’ve been a respected indie staple, blending folk-inspired harmonies & storytelling with indie guitars & bright choruses. Their albums are meticulously planned & thought out; while this yields great results, it can get pretty tiring. So they decided to try something different: release a short EP, highlighting four songs that never fit into an album, but needed to be heard.
