Night Beds performs live in the Soundcheck studio.
(Michael Katzif / WNYC)
From time to time, we like to introduce you to young bands on the rise that we think you should know. On today’s Blind Date, we bring you the dark chamber-folk group Night Beds. The band is led by Winston Yellen -- a songwriter who hails from Colorado Springs, but has found a home in Nashville, Tennessee.
Night Bed's debut full-length, Country Sleep is out in February, but we get to hear a preview of the record as we continue our search for true musical love.
The band gives us its answers to our Blind Date Questionnaire, below, and they play their "khaki dad jams" live.
To learn more about your blind date, check out the questionnaire below.
