When it comes to multi-member musical ensembles, Calgary's Woodpigeon have very steadily been making an international name for themselves. Last year, the band released BALLADEER / to all the guys i've loved before, originally the accompanying bonus disc to Die Stadt Muzikanten, on vinyl and in digital form. Now the band are offering up the official video for "Featherstone" off of BALLADEER.

The vintage style video -- a collage of crackly, home-video clips from decades passed -- was edited by the band's Mark Andrew Hamilton, who used old Super 8 footage loaned to him by the Turnbull family, of the Calgary Turnbulls. For the nostalgic results, watch the video below.

While Woodpigeon don't currently have any Canadian shows booked, they are in the midst of an European tour, which includes a July 2 Canada Day celebration concert in London with Chilly Gonzales, the Hidden Cameras, Devon Sproule and Sandro Perri. You can see all the dates here.
