Okkervil River @ Webster Hall
What a show! This band is such a powerful unit of folk rock it’s unbelievable. Every member plays so tightly and when they change something, they change it on a dime. When Will Sheff performs his music, you get a great sense of love and ownership of the tunes. Every slow song was captivating and every other selection was played like it was the finale.
The concert strengthened The Stand-ins, solidified The Stage Names and Black Sheep Boy and intrigued me to get their earlier albums.
