SASQUATCH! Music: The Low Anthem - The Horizon Is A Beltway



I know the idea here is to put up live recordings of each band when possible, but the only live version I could find looks to be about 3 years old and in someone's basement.

The low anthem is a bit of quirky four-piece from Rhode Island. They often switch instruments between songs and alternate pretty wildly from slow, soft tunes to loud rocking folk-jams.

They put a great show on at Bonnaroo in 2009 (playing an earlier spot than they planned when Delta Spirit didn't show up on time) and so we checked them out when they came to DC. It was there they played an equally energetic but rearranged version, although one I don't like at much as the original.

They ended a tour with Josh Ritter last year and are touring with The Avett Brothers now. That's a show worth seeing.
