Second Breakfast Club
This is Hairfoot, the band that introduced the cottagecore movement to the music scene, drawing heavily on the folk revival influence but also creating something unique with its blending of other influences including frequent acoustic and mediaeval instrumentation, especially the hurdy-gurdy (which became the quintessential backing instrument in the majority of their later releases). Other influences include post-rock, math-rock, pre-modern balladry, psychedelic folk, and jazz.
This is their first major release and breakthrough global hit album, Where the Great Eagles Fear to Fly.
Lol, I like the name Hairfoot because it's just obscure enough that you have to think about it before it clicks and it's a subtle nod to The Beatles wordplay on Beatles/Beetles - when you say Hairfoot you can't tell whether it's Hare Foot, like the amulet used as a lucky charm, or if it's Hairfoot and that kinda fits in with the traditional aesthetic of the band.
Lorecrafting is my passion.
I was just trying to do a callback to the Proudfoot/ProudFEET thing from Bilbo's going away party in Fellowship of the Ring.

For anybody who doesn't know - straw is a euphemism for both the pipe and the bed.
It's the self-titled by Small Faces.
Edit: They're hobbits, they literally have small faces.
