The band The National.

The National

Indie to the core, moody, atmospheric, and a little obscure, The National has been around since at least 2001 (scoring a Grammy in 2017) but in some ways has never had a higher profile than right now. The band’s latest release, this spring’s First Two Pages of Frankenstein, is a strong outing and possibly their most approachable, with more acoustic interludes and Matt Berninger’s vocals rising from drone to melody. Opening are the bright, electric New Zealand band The Beths. This is a sold-out show but who knows, you might find some last-minute tickets lurking somewhere.
