Forget the bio, let's start off with what I'm listening to right now! :)

The National

[Left to Right: Bryce Dessner (Guitar), Brian Devendorf (Drums), Matt Berninger (Lead Vocals), Scott Devendorf (Guitar), and Aaron Dessner (Bass)]

-Formed in 1991

-They started off in Ohio, but all members came together in Brooklyn, NY.

-I think the lead singer sounds like Mikel Jollett from Airborne Toxic Event (thats just my opinion lol)

-Lead singer + two sets of brothers (if you didn't notice the similarities in the last names haha)

Songs to listen to: Bloodbuzz Ohio, Mistaken for Strangers, Fake Empire, and Slow Show.

The National - Fake Empire

They have shows coming up at Massey Hall, Tuesday, June 8th, 2010, and Wednesday, June 9th, 2010.
