In June 2010, Band of Horses captured the hearts of fans at Ward Park in Bangor, UK, with a stellar live performance of their iconic track 'The Funeral.' This performance came shortly after the release of their third studio album, 'Infinite Arms,' which had debuted just weeks before, in May 2010. 'Infinite Arms' marked a significant moment in their career, blending their Appalachian roots with broader rock influences. What's fascinating is that this album was their first to reach the top 30 of the Billboard 200 chart, showcasing their growing popularity. The live energy you can hear in this recording underscores the emotional depth and familiarity fans felt with their music by this time, despite it being only their third album. The band's ability to create an intimate connection with their audience is evident—and who doesn't get chills listening to 'The Funeral'? It's a live performance that truly encapsulates their sound during this pivotal moment in their journey.
