GIG GUIDE - Event Details

Of Montreal

Of Montreal

Thu Feb 26th, 2009


Doors open: 9:00 pm
Entry: R18


or eleven years, Kevin Barnes and the gifted musicians that comprise Of Montreal have been building an appreciative audience, raised to fever pitch by the band’s highly theatrical live performances. The band was formed in Athens,Georgia in 1997 as part of the second wave of bands from the Elephant 6 Collective that had given us Neutral Milk Hotel and Apples in Stereo. Supposedly, the name Of Montreal was inspired by a woman from that city who Kevin Barnes once dated, but that story can change. What we do know about Of Montreal is that especially since the release of Hissing Fauna, Are You The Destroyer, the giddy pop of their younger days has been combined with some of the most relentlessly attractive melodies and heartfelt lyrics in all of popular music, ever.
