Of Montreal Live Performance at Mohawk, Austin, TX
In October 2014, during their energetic performance at the Mohawk in Austin, TX, Of Montreal was promoting their album 'Lousy with Sylvianbriar.' This record, released in 2013, marked a departure from their earlier, more electronic sound, embracing a more organic, indie rock vibe. Interesting tidbit: the album was inspired by lead singer Kevin Barnes’ experiences in Georgia, blending personal reflections with vivid imagery. This live recording captures the band’s eclectic and theatrical style, emblematic of their wider discography, filled with intricate arrangements and whimsical lyrics. The vibrant atmosphere of the venue adds to the performance's charm, showcasing a band that thrives on connecting with their audience through elaborate stage visuals and lively interactions.
