Band of Horses

In April 2006, when Band of Horses performed 'St. Augustine' live at Neumos in Seattle, they were riding high on the release of their debut album 'Everything All the Time,' which had launched just a few months earlier. This album, with its rich blend of poignant lyrics and atmospheric soundscapes, quickly garnered critical acclaim and began to earn the band a dedicated fanbase. The live recording captures that raw energy and fresh excitement as they unveiled their unique sound to the world. Interestingly, this performance happened at a time when the band was still solidifying their identity, experimenting with their musical style, and they hadn't yet made the transition into the mainstream that would follow with their later albums. It's a snapshot of a band on the cusp of something big, full of promise and authenticity.
