Band of Horses

In 2011, Band of Horses was gearing up for an exciting phase in their career. Just before the live recording of "The Funeral" at Red Rocks Amphitheater, they released their third studio album, "Infinite Arms," in 2010, which marked a significant high point for the band. The album earned them a Grammy nomination and showcased their evolving sound, blending rock with folk-influenced melodies. The performance captured in this video reflects their growing confidence and fan base, set against the stunning backdrop of one of America's most iconic venues. The heartfelt live rendition highlights their ability to connect with audiences, particularly through this song, which has become a signature hit. Interestingly, the band penned "The Funeral" in the earlier stages of their career, but its emotional weight continues to resonate, making every performance a standout moment.
