Horse Feathers began in 2004 when singer-songwriter Justin Ringle moved to Portland, Oregon, from Idaho. After performing acoustic music at open mics, Ringle’s demos caught the attention of multi-instrumentalist Peter Broderick in 2005. This collaboration led to the recording of their debut album, “Words Are Dead,” which was released in September 2006 on the Portland label Lucky Madison. Following the album’s release, Peter’s sister, Heather Broderick, joined the band on cello later that year. By 2007, Horse Feathers had evolved to include a rotating group of instrumentalists, all supporting Ringle’s primary guitar and vocal contributions.
In late 2007 and early 2008, Ringle and the Broderick siblings recorded their second album, “House With No Home,” released by Kill Rock Stars in spring 2008. After this release, Peter Broderick departed the group to pursue musical endeavors in Europe, and Nathan Crockett assumed violin duties. Heather Broderick also left to focus on other projects, with cellist Catherine Odell joining the lineup. In early 2009, Sam Cooper became a multi-instrumentalist member, solidifying the four-piece formation. This iteration of the band undertook extensive touring and released “Thistled Spring” through Kill Rock Stars on April 20, 2010.
The band’s fourth album, “Cynic’s New Year,” was released in 2012, achieving a position on the Billboard charts. On October 21, 2014, Kill Rock Stars released their fifth album, “So It Is with Us,” which had been debuted by NPR on October 12, 2014. This album, recorded in a rural Oregon barn after a hiatus from Ringle, marked a stylistic shift by incorporating drums and bass. On May 4, 2018, Horse Feathers released their sixth album, “Appreciation,” via Kill Rock Stars, featuring the new rhythm section of J. Tom Hnatow and Robby Cosenza. The album’s single, “Without Applause,” was debuted by NPR on March 2, 2018.
