Our Favorite Photos of 2009: Bon Iver
Bon Iver at Sasquatch ::: photo by Josh Lovseth
In a year where we’ve seen hundreds upon hundreds of sets by bands of all calibers and genres, few have made as lasting an impression as Bon Iver’s Sasquatch set.
Bundled up today in more layers than I feel comfortable admitting, it seems funny to me that these songs resonated so deeply in that hot and dusty summer setting, because Bon Iver sings for winter days like today. Days where the air is so cold, every breath you draw aches. Where the layers we wear mimic the walls we put up to keep people from getting too close. I recommend treating your headphones as ear-muffs, putting on some Bon Iver, taking a long frigid walk, and embracing the lonely loveliness of the winter weather and his songs.

Yes! This was honestly one of the greatest musical performances I have ever witnessed.
