Band of Horses - The Funeral Live Performance at Métropolis de Montréal

Venue: Metropolis Location: Montreal, Quebec, Canada Date: December 6, 2012

On December 6, 2012, Band of Horses delivered an electrifying performance of 'The Funeral' at the Métropolis in Montreal. This live recording came in the wake of their fourth studio album, 'Mirage Rock,' released earlier that same year. 'Mirage Rock' marked a crucial moment for the band, showcasing their signature blend of folk rock and indie sounds while embracing a more polished production style. Interestingly, the band’s frontman, Ben Bridwell, has often mentioned how playing live helps evolve their sound, making each performance unique. The atmosphere of the Montreal venue, steeped in history, paired perfectly with the emotional weight of 'The Funeral,' a song that has resonated deeply with fans since its release. The crowd's energy adds a palpable intensity, making this live rendition truly memorable—or as they’d say, the band's live magic in full force.
