Band of Horses

On August 17, 2018, Band of Horses performed 'Laredo' live at The Ritz in Raleigh, North Carolina, a highlight capturing their distinctive sound and engaging stage presence. This performance came shortly after the release of their fifth studio album, 'Why Are You OK,' which dropped in 2016. This album marked a significant evolution in their music, showcasing more introspective lyrics and a diverse sound palette. Interestingly, 'Laredo' is one of the standout tracks from their 2010 album, 'Infinite Arms,' which helped propel them into mainstream fame. At the time of the Raleigh show, the band was in a phase of re-engaging their audience, having toured to support their recent works while also celebrating the anthemic qualities of their earlier hits. The live energy and connection with the crowd during this performance highlight how the band seamlessly blends nostalgia with their growth in the music world.
