About Blind Pilot

Blind Pilot is an American indie folk band based in Portland, Oregon, United States. They have released four albums and one EP since 2008.


On July 15, 2008, Blind Pilot released their debut CD 3 Rounds and a Sound on Expunged Records. "Go On, Say It", was chosen to be a Single of the Week on July 7, 2008 on the iTunes chart, and for the week of July 26 the record reached number 13 on the Billboard Top Digital Albums chart. Allmusic gave the album 3.5/5 stars.


Originally a duo between Israel Nebeker and Ryan Dobrowski, the band added four touring members in February 2009. On December 29 of that year, the band released an iTunes only live EP. This EP featured a cover of Gillian Welch's "Look at Miss Ohio". The EP also included new versions of previously released songs, along with a new song, titled "Get It Out". The EP was mixed and recorded by Tucker Martine.


Blind Pilot released their second album, We Are The Tide, on September 13, 2011 as a sextet. The album featured the song "Get It Out" from the previous EP. Allmusic praised the additional members, who they said "add bigger, brighter colors to the mix" in a 4.5-star review.


On June 1, 2016, Blind Pilot announced their third album, And Then Like Lions, would be released August 12 on ATO Records. The album received 'universal acclaim' from Metacritic, with a score of 71 out of 100 from critics.


After an eight-year hiatus from releasing new music, Blind Pilot announced a new album titled In The Shadow of the Holy Mountain on June 18, 2024, set for release on August 16. The announcement was made on social media, where the band expressed their excitement about the new project, stating "We made an album! We love it and we cannot wait to share it with you." The first single from the album, "Just A Bird," was released on the same day as the announcement.


On the day of the new album's release, Israel Nebeker wrote on Instagram "Last June, I woke up with a very funny thought, after years of struggling to complete another Blind Pilot album. 'I should write an album in a month, and whatever it is, I should bring that to the band and let the band create as its own living, breathing entity with whatever songs come through.' That one thought, in the between state of dreaming and walking, set such a beautiful project into motion. The way we recorded this album was with the utter joy of exploration, the yes of appreciation for one another, and more love that I've ever felt in a studio before. It's our favorite album that we've made, and we are so excited to share it with you today. We hope it brings you joy, and moves you in the way it has us. Thank you a million times for waiting. This is my happiest day in years. Thank you for all that you've given us over the years. A path to be on. A place for our music to go. We're so glad to give this album to you all today. We hope you love it."
