Sasquatch! 2009: Grizzly Bear, Black Moth Super Rainbow, Horse Feathers, Santigold
Another amazing, sunny day here at Sasquatch! I've coated myself with the highest SPF sunscreen I could procure and set off running. Here's a sampling of some of the acts I've caught so far:
Grizzly Bear:
My first band of the day was Grizzly Bear, who played through the majority of their new new album Veckatimest, which they'll unleash on the world starting tomorrow, along with some old favorites like Yellow House's majestic single, "The Knife." It was a great, mellow way to lull the crowd back into the last day.
Black Moth Super Rainbow:
The smooth and psychedelic sounds of Black Moth Super Rainbow up on the Wookie Stage had a similar impact on the crowd there. I feel like their albums can be a bit meanderery, unstructured, and noisy, but this live set was beautiful--swimming in vocoders, analog synths, and bliss.
Horse Feathers:
I only caught a couple songs of Horse Feathers' set on the Yeti Stage, but enjoyed what I heard--acoustic strings, including cello, viola, banjo, and acoustic guitars that completed the mellow vibe blanketing the festival from every corner.
Santigold:
Here's where the tempo's picking up. Santigold had the crowd throwing their arms in the air with her mixture of world beat's driving rhythms and new wave pop's sleek synths and structure. The audience was all over this, especially when she played her hit single "L.E.S. Artistes."
Alright--I'm off to check out more bands, and will report back later
