The Walkmen

On March 4, 2008, The Walkmen delivered a captivating live performance at Webster Hall in New York City, showcasing their evocative song “Thinking Of A Dream I Had.” At this time, the band had recently released their album *You & Me* (2008), which marked a significant evolution in their sound—juxtaposing introspective lyrics with rich, layered instrumentation. Interestingly, *You & Me* was recorded in the aftermath of a more experimental phase, drawing heavily from the influences of the city around them. The live setting of Webster Hall, with its vibrant energy and eclectic audience, perfectly aligned with the band’s ability to create an intimate atmosphere even in larger venues. Fans often recall this period as reflective and mature, highlighting the emotional depth that became their signature. It was a time when The Walkmen were solidifying their place in the indie rock scene, and this performance captured the essence of their growth beautifully.
