Band of Horses Live Performance of 'St. Augustine' at Palace of Fine Arts

Venue: Palace of Fine Arts Theatre Location: San Francisco, California, United States Date: February 14, 2014

On February 14, 2014, Band of Horses delivered a memorable live performance at the Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco, showcasing their lush sound and emotional depth during "A Very Special Acoustic Performance" tour. At this point in their career, the band was riding high on the success of their fourth studio album, 'Mirage Rock,' released in 2012, which featured hits like 'Knock Knock' and 'Ben Bridwell's distinctive vocals atop an indie rock foundation became hallmarks of their style. Interestingly, between 'Mirage Rock' and this live recording, the band had also been exploring various musical avenues on the road, hinting at an evolving sound that fans were excited to experience. Quite fitting for Valentine's Day, the intimate setting added an extra layer of warmth to the performance, allowing the audience to connect deeply with the band’s poignant lyricism and melodies.
