Of Montreal Performance at McCarren Park Pool - Concert Highlights

Date: July 30, 2006

In the summer of 2006, just before the live recording at McCarren Park Pool, Of Montreal had released their critically acclaimed album 'Hissing Fauna, Are You the Destroyer?' Although this album officially came out in 2007, its tracks were being performed live during this period, showcasing the band’s unique blend of psych-pop and theatrical performance. This concert highlights their energetic approach, which meshed perfectly with their eclectic sound and vivid stage presence. Fun fact: the band, led by the charismatic Kevin Barnes, often explores themes of identity and personal struggle in their lyrics, creating a connection with audiences that was palpable during this performance. This summer show captured the band's rise as a front-runner in the indie pop scene, setting the stage for their future success.
