Of Monsters and Men live at the Lowlands Festival 2012. Acoustic session in a sea container. Broadcasted by Dutch Television Nederland 3, 3voor12 and Radio 3FM. Set list: Dirty Paws Mountain Sound Little Talks
Especially Nanna, whose accent is a mix of her native Icelandic/Scandinavian and Glaswegian (not sure where exactly that comes from, someone told me she lived there for a while)
My cousin who recently passed on..introduced me to this amazing band and I won’t ever forget it or him I was tripping on shrooms while listening to them for the first time it was amazing Rest up cousin Joel Ramirez forever in our hearts until we meet up again 🕊️🫶🏻”though the truth may vary this this, ships will carry our body’s safe to shore” 👏🏼👏🏼🫶🏻
Reminds me of way back in 2017 or so when I went to my first pro football game and we listen to two of their greatest albums on our way to the game. :)
The early teens were a magical time for music - these guys, Mumford and Sons, Lumineers, Jonah and the Whale, all had a folk sound with occasional brass instruments. Gone too soon.
So am I in 2024. One of the best ever bands. Hope they return live!!! From UK. Seen them twice, both really, really memorable gigs, especially Bristol O2 with my teen daughter, her first proper gig and she absolutely LOVED IT!
Three great melodies. Two great voices. Horn Babe and Accordion Dude. Great chord changes. Focused. Having fun. Icelanders sweating for God's sake. OMAM is an international treasure.
Omg I just love this!! Their voices are like ONE when they sing its pure magic...and the audience!! Omg the audience is JUST AMAZING!! Makes me cry a little every time I watch the last song...so damn good!! Thank you making us FEEL something...true artists :)!!!
In 2014 I traveled to the US with my son-in-law, we drove around the west for 4000km listening to MAM on the car radio. These songs bring back great memories.
I'm a hard rock, heavy metal guy through and through and i have to say, this band is amazing! Little Talks has been over played but the rest of my head is an animal is just pure brilliance!
Artists and audience enjoying that magic synergy that can happen when all are having a great time, simply brilliant and it must have been a privelige to be there.
I love them. I love their quirkiness, their originality and their raw talent. I can't say exactly why, but they remind of Irish bands. Or Bands from Breton like Manou. Probably because they seem to be so unique. Amazing.
Ahhhhh! I love these guys! They're so confident and chill while they jam. I always feel like I'm at a small private venue when I watch them. I can't wait to see them live!
I'm 50 years old, and absolutely love this band, I wish the best for their future, and hope to hear more from them. Keep it real, you guys are the best!
God, I just knew this song, Little Talks, and went in love with this band!!! That's one of the happiest songs and players ever!!! So good to listen to it!
This video got me through covid. Four years after the lockdown and I go back to this viseo monthly. I saw it years ago on the shared family computer in the living room. The early 2010s were great times for discovering music! 🎶
***** Well I believe that it's Nanna's accent that is the reason for her distinctive singing style and, for example, on Mountain Sound the chorus has some wonderful Icelandic flavour that I think really adds to it. But that's just me : )
Completely agree. I think Nanna really does this band justice on many of their songs with the flavor she adds. Her voice, and the bands overall raw sound blends perfectly.
10 years ago this is posted and I just read it and I've been a bass player for 30 years people have never stopped amazing me. One point in my life they only disappointed disappointed I thought lies of an enemy believe in Jesus and our Lord he pulled me out of the fire just like this music will help people or has helped people this the first song dirty feet I think puts a smile on my face every time I hear it's beautiful.Jesus
Awesome band!!! Here's a few reasons: 1.) They seem to be a very happy group (especially Nanna...always smiling, even in the heat) 2.) They write their own songs 3.) Their live versions are just as good as their studio versions 4.) They use many different instruments, making them mesh extremely well 5.) Great voices! 6.) Nanna is hot! (which can be taken either way in this video)
Absolutely brilliant, I love you guys , can't get enough so listen to what I say ,..Hey..don't change a thing, keep on doing what your doing!..I mean it UR Amazing!!!
