The National

In the midst of their career, The National delivered a captivating live performance of 'I Should Live in Salt' at the Treasure Island Music Festival on October 18, 2015. This was right around the time they released their album 'Trouble Will Find Me' in 2013, which was a significant moment for the band, solidifying their presence in indie rock. Interestingly, the band's signature moody sound was already resonating deeply with fans, and their ability to blend haunting melodies with introspective lyrics had really come into its own. At this festival, frontman Matt Berninger's playful quips about his look in the wind showed a lighter side of the band, contrasting beautifully with the emotional weight of their music. This performance marked the band's ongoing evolution, hinting at their journey toward their later album, 'Sleep Well Beast,' released in 2017.
