From our friends over at D+T Magazine is a behind the scenes interview with Noah and the Whale at the Mercury Lounge during their U.S. Tour. They talk about their new record, the growth of the band after their “break-up,” and more.

Noah and the Whale, the British indie folk group, with punk rock and folk influences, from Twickenham, London, England has been compared to Neutral Milk, Hotel, Bonnie Prince Billy and Belle & Sebastian. Their debut album,  Peaceful, the World Lays me Down, was released on August 11th, 2008 and made it to the number 5 spot on the Official UK Album Chart. Since then, they released their second full length LP in August 2009, entitled The First Days of Spring. Band member Charlie Fink also made a film that runs the entire length of the album called…? The First Days of Spring!
