The National

On July 13, 2011, The National performed an intimate show at Poppodium 013 in Tilburg, Netherlands, where they showcased their compelling tracks "Available" and "Cardinal Song." This performance came after the release of their critically acclaimed album, "High Violet," which dropped in 2010 and marked a significant turning point in their career, pushing them into the mainstream spotlight. The band, known for their deep, brooding sound and frontman Matt Berninger's baritone voice, was still riding the wave of positive reception from this album, which included hits like "Bloodbuzz Ohio." Interestingly, this live recording captures the raw, emotional energy that the band is celebrated for, providing fans a glimpse into their evolving sound during this pivotal time when they were transitioning from indie darlings to a well-respected name in rock music.
