A product of Portland, Ore.'s thriving open-mic scene, Justin Ringle leads Horse Feathers, a folk-pop band that exudes quiet intensity. After the departure of talented multi-instrumentalist Peter Broderick, Ringle solidified a group of musicians to tour and record the band's new album, Thistled Spring. The strings and accordions sound a bit lusher, while Ringle's stories are as poignant as ever.
