Of Montreal Live Performance of 'Oslo in the Summertime' at MHOW

Date: April 16, 2009

In April 2009, when Of Montreal performed "Oslo in the Summertime" at Music Hall of Williamsburg, they were riding high on the success of their album "Skeletal Lamping," released in 2008. This eclectic blend of glam rock and pop showcased their signature whimsical and avant-garde style, pushing creative boundaries that fans had come to adore. By this time in their career, the band was fully embracing theatrical elements in their performances—think colorful costumes, vibrant visuals, and a captivating stage presence. It’s interesting to note that this live recording not only captured their infectious energy but also spotlighted lead singer Kevin Barnes’ evolution as a songwriter, reflecting personal and artistic growth during this transformative era. The performance itself was part of a tour that highlighted the band's dynamic capabilities, resonating deeply with audiences who thrived on their bold, eclectic sounds.
