We've recorded a lot of unique performances during Pickathon over the past few years, but there's nothing quite like lush orchestration and natural harmonies to complement the gorgeous wooded oasis that is the Bunny Glade. Two of the bigger ensembles this year were also two of the most enjoyable, including the lively sing-along-friendly Portland band Ages and Ages and Boston folk quartet Quilt, both of which we've hosted in the KEXP studio recently but also both that seem even more at home in the woods.
