of Montreal Live Performance of Oslo in the Summertime at The Echoplex
In November 2013, of Montreal was solidly in the midst of their evolving musical journey, having just released their adventurous album 'Lousy with Sylvanbriar' in 2013. This album marked a collaborative effort that embraced a more organic sound, highlighting the band’s shift towards indie-rock influences. During the live performance of 'Oslo in the Summertime' at The Echoplex, you can feel the vibrant energy of a band not only comfortable in their evolution but also deeply connected with their audience. It’s worth noting that the band’s frontman, Kevin Barnes, has often spoken about the natural inspirations behind their music, making this live recording a powerful moment where artistic introspection meets lively performance. As a band known for their flamboyant stage shows, this concert encapsulated the blend of exuberance and introspection that defines much of their work.
