Band of Horses

In August 2009, Band of Horses delivered a compelling live performance at the Way Out West festival in Gothenburg, Sweden, showcasing their signature sound just as they were riding high on the success of their sophomore album, 'Cease to Begin.' Released in 2007, this album solidified their place in the indie rock scene, featuring beloved tracks like 'Is There a Ghost' and 'No One's Gonna Love You.' The live recording of 'Weed Party' captures the band’s raw energy during a pivotal time in their career when they were gaining international attention. Interestingly, their ability to meld heartfelt lyrics with atmospheric instrumentation shone through, resonating deeply with the Swedish audience. This concert is a testament to their evolution as a live act, following the buzz of a breakthrough album while laying the groundwork for future projects like 'Infinite Arms' released in 2010.
