About Megafaun
Artist Biography
When Justin Vernon left Raleigh-by-way-of-Eau-Claire-Wisconsin indie folkers DeYarmond Edison to go on to late-‘00s indie wunderkind status as Bon Iver, the remaining members of DE, Phil Cook, Brad Cook, and Joe Westerlund, carried on in North Carolina as Megafaun. With an impossible to pinpoint, laid back lo-fi sound incorporating Byrds-esque harmonies, elegiac folk-picking, and off-kilter instrumentation (think a rougher-around-the edges Fleet Foxes), Megafaun earned accolades beyond their feted former bandmate. 2009's GATHER, FORM & FLY earned near-universal rave reviews.
