Band of Horses Live Performance of New Song 'Hard Times' at O2 Academy
In June 2019, Band of Horses took the stage at the O2 Academy in Oxford, UK, performing their new track "Hard Times." This live recording came shortly after the release of their album "Why Are You OK," which debuted in 2016 and showcased their evolving sound, blending country rock with indie elements. By the time they played this show, the band was still riding high on the critical acclaim from their past work while contemplating the future direction of their music. Fun fact: the band’s unique sound often gets compared to the likes of My Morning Jacket, and their emotionally charged performances have become a hallmark of their appeal. This performance, notably featuring "Hard Times," hinted at new musical explorations ahead, making fans eager for what was to come next.
