My sister cried the first time she heard them play. They were supporting Ray LaMontagne. What a gig!

[RayAndPES]

It just gets better and better.

I saw them at Bonnaroo and it had to be one of the best sets I've ever seen. Half the (blank) crowd left after the first two songs, and they did a version of this song which had to be one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard. Utterly amazing. 

[RayAndPES]

They are a special band, the music they create is just wonderful. I'm going to see them again in two weeks time along with Villagers and Fleet Foxes. Can not wait!

Saw them live last night with Iron and Wine. Incredible.

[RayAndPES]

I saw them support Iron & Wine last sept. They were 12 times better than I&W

[Lee Wanner]

If this had ten million views, I'd be thinking... "Really? Only ten million?!"

mad applause.

Crotales, small tuned cymbals. Beautiful if Eye-wateringly expensive:s

They did the same microphone effect in Toronto at Massey Hall. Instead, he got everyone to pull out their phones in the audience and call the person next to them and put it on speaker. The residual noise echoeing from the song, through the microphone speakers made a cricket-like noise and resignated through the hall as the song ended. Best concert experience ever.

I saw them at Bestival 2009, at lunchtime on the main stage. There were about 20 people watching, and I was in my pyjamas x), but they blew us all away and I've been a fan ever since. They create such a calming atmosphere, it was lovely!

LOOOOOOVE

Saw them with Iron&Wine almost 2 years ago. It was such a show, I'm barely recovering. Until now I haven't been ready to listen,but I am now.

As the last song in their set was ending, Ben started to make a phone call and I was thinking "wow, what a douche, making a call during a song" but when I realized what he was doing, I shat bricks. He called the bassist at the time, answered it, and held the phones up to the mic for a weird, spooky, and eerily beautiful feeedback sound that ended the song

[Ahmabehr]

Huh...Didn't know Jake Gyllenhaal played music. News to me.

[Matt Nunan]

If this does not make you weep, you have no soul.

[Kerry Courtney]

Oh my god is right.... This is so beautifully haunting.
