At long last, Band of Horses, the gentle, bearded rockers from South Carolina, have dropped their fifth album, Why Are You OK?. Staying true to form, even the meaner songs sound a bit like Neil Young if he hadn't discovered anger.
Now, as part of this year's Splendour sideshows, the denim-clad daydreamers are descending on the Opera House. Billed as a "transformative display of pure guitar-driven anthems", the Concert Hall seems an ideal location for the band to let loose their hazy, swirling, laidback ballads. For those overdue for a 'Casual Party', book. Book now.
There's more Splendour sideshow action where this came from. Check out our list of sideshows with tickets still available.
