Live at The Olympic – 10/8/22

October 8, 2022

the story

Our first show at The Olympic and for the amazing booking company Duck Club! We were super excited for this one. We also debuted two new songs at this show, 2029 and Here, There, and Back Again. Both went over really well, and we got lots of people coming up to us after the show to tell us how much they enjoyed them. It really means a lot that people are loving our new stuff as much as we are.

We opened for an incredible folk band from Atlanta called Neighbor Lady. Our genres were totally different, but it was a blast to open for them, and the band were really great people. David had been a fan of theirs for a while before the show came along. Go check out their album For The Birds – especially the tracks Feel It All The Time and Sister. Amazing stuff!!

The show went really well. In terms of our tightness as a band, we felt like this was our best performance yet. We played really well, especially with the new songs (although David messed up the lyrics to Here, There, and Back Again pretty bad and then tweaked his throat at the end of 2029 lol). We also were really proud of the setlist we put together; it flowed better than any of our other sets we’ve played and included some really fun interludes. Another fun fact: the previous drummer for Built to Spill was there and loved the show! That was pretty crazy.

Overall a super fun show. Thanks again to everybody who came by.
