With producer Phil Ek, the band recorded their first demo in 2006, the self-released Fleet Foxes EP. The group subsequently signed with acclaimed UK indie label Bella Union in Europe and Warner Music subsidiary record label Sub Pop for the USA, early in 2008. The band's performance at the South by Southwest festival in March caught the attention of the international press;[1] a month later, Fleet Foxes released their second EP, Sun Giant, to critical acclaim.[3] Their first full-length album, Fleet Foxes, was released in June and peaked at number three in the United Kingdom, where it was certified platinum. The album was also certified gold in the US. "Mykonos", a single from Sun Giant, was released in 2009 and reached the top 20 in Belgium and Scotland, and peaked at 51 in the UK.

Fleet Foxes' second album, Helplessness Blues, was released in 2011 and entered the top 10 in the US, Australia, Belgium, Canada, the Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, and the UK. It was nominated in the Best Folk Album category at the 54th Annual Grammy Awards.[4] After a six-year hiatus,[5] Fleet Foxes released a lyric video for the song "Third of May / Ōdaigahara" in March 2017. The band's third studio album, Crack-Up, was released June 16, 2017 on Nonesuch Records.
