Feist and Mastodon are pleased to announce that courtesy of Record Store Day, they will release a digital version of their popular 7” vinyl single, 'A Commotion' / 'Black Tongue,' today via Warner Bros Records and Cherrytree/Interscope Records. A 'Feistodon' music video, directed by Vice Cooler, will premiere the same day on www.listentofeist.com and www.mastodonrocks.com. The video is launched by an HTML5 'Feistodon' video app that allows users to crossfade between Feist and Mastodon's versions of the A Commotion to make their own unique versions.

The 'Feistodon' split-single was one of the most in-demand exclusives during Record Store Day this past April 21st. It features Mastodon covering the Feist song 'A Commotion,' while Feist covers Mastodon's 'Black Tongue' — a track from the Atlanta rock band’s critically acclaimed current album The Hunter. Only 5000 color vinyl 7” singles were pressed up and sold out instantly.


Mastodon and Leslie Feist met while appearing on the same episode of 'Later… with Jools Holland' last October. They were both so impressed with each other’s performances that they decided to work together.
