Location: Murat Egyptian Room Indianapolis, IN

I enjoyed, this past Sunday night, seeing “Band Of Horses” live, touring for their newest album, ‘Infinite Arms’ to an energetic crowd. This year’s release produced a favorite song, ‘Older’, which hit home for me this year! A well-played version was a highlight, along with Laredo for this cheering fan. The playlist was a good mix of songs from all three albums and touched on what seemed to be mostly fan favorites.

2007’s ‘Is There a Ghost’ and ‘No One’s Gonna Love You’ from the Ceases To Begin album where strong sing along songs, and lead singer Ben Bridwell’s lyrics showed why this album was 47^th in Rolling Stone’s top albums of the year.

‘The Funeral’, maybe the bands best known song, finished the main set. You might remember this song from the debut Everything All The Time. Used in many TV shows, movies and for the 2008 Ford Edge commercial, this was clearly their most popular song. There is something to be said about a song with a death theme being used to sell cars and a concert where the audience waves its hands in the air excited to hear it, but then I guess that’s proof of a good time and a great song.
