Of Montreal - Famine Affair Live Performance at 9th Street Summerfest, Columbia, MO
In May 2010, when Of Montreal performed 'Famine Affair' at the 9th Street Summerfest in Columbia, MO, they were riding high on the waves of their critically acclaimed album 'False Priest,' released just eight months prior. This album showcased a blend of funk, pop, and experimental sounds that pushed the boundaries of their artistic identity, expanding their already eclectic style. A notable aspect of this live performance is the infectious energy of the band, bringing fans to the forefront of their vibrant storytelling through music. What's intriguing is how frontman Kevin Barnes often incorporates theatrical elements in performances, creating a deeply immersive experience. This show perfectly encapsulated the band's dynamic spirit, showcasing not only the intricate arrangements of 'False Priest' but also solidifying Of Montreal's reputation as a powerful live act in the indie rock scene.
