Sam Herring and William Cashion play together in Future Islands, but they’re also part of a lesser-known group called the Snails. In 2013, the group released their debut EP Worth the Wait. Two years later, they’ve re-recorded their Christmas song “Snails Christmas (I Want A New Shell)”, which was featured on the 2013 compilation Baltimas!!!!!!!!!. Listen to it above.

The band is currently plotting their debut LP Songs From the Shoebox. They’re heading out on tour next year. Find the dates below.
