Band of Horses

In June 2005, Band of Horses was riding a wave of excitement with their debut album, 'Everything All the Time,' released just a few months prior. This live recording from 'No Love For Ned' showcases the raw energy and emotional depth that the band was quickly becoming known for. With Ben Bridwell at the helm, the band layered rich harmonies and haunting melodies while still embodying a fresh, indie spirit. The performance, captured in Chapel Hill, NC, highlights their early sound, just as they were beginning to carve out their place in the alt-rock scene. An interesting tidbit? This was shortly after the band's formation and before they garnered widespread recognition, which makes this recording a glimpse into a pivotal moment in their trajectory. It's a true snapshot of the band's nascent energy before they would eventually soar to greater heights.
