Indianapolis, IN – Indie Rock band The National stopped by The Lawn at White River State Park to showcase their ‘I Am Easy to Find‘ tour and brought along Australian singer-songwriter Courtney Barnett to start the evening off. Courtney (guitar, vocals), along with band mates Bones Sloane (bass) and Dave Mudie (drums) gave an amazing performance covering tunes off her 2018 album Tell Me How You Really Feel along with her 2019 single, “Everybody Here Hates You“.
After a small break, The National took the stage all smiles and with cool beverages in hand! Bringing along with them an amazing lighting and video production that included three large LED walls (4 Wall Entertainment) – band members Matt Berninger (vocals), Aaron Dessner (guitar, bass, piano, keys, harmonica, mandolin, backing vocals), Bryce Dessner (guitar, keys, piano, backing vocals), Bryan Devendorf (drums, percussion, backing vocals), and Scott Devendorf (bass, guitar, backing vocals) kicked the show off, along with guest vocalist Zoe Randell, and performed songs from the new album I Am Easy To Find before mixing up the setlist with fan favorites as well as new songs debuting on this tour!
