The National Live — Sleep Well Beast Tour, Netherlands

25 October 2017 · Amsterdam

Five musicians spread across a dark stage, each caught in their own column of white stage light. The guitarist up front leans into the mic; the keyboard players hold the middle ground; the drummer anchors the back. Stage lighting does the compositional work here — it isolates every performer while the surrounding darkness pulls them together into one frame. The National's Sleep Well Beast tour, shot from the floor of a Dutch indoor venue.
