Music analyst, writer and podcast host, Bob Lefsetz, reviewed Nathaniel Rateliff & the Night Sweats’ recent performance in Vail, Colo. In his piece, Lefsetz discusses some of the band’s early struggles, management break through and rise to fame, while describing the appeal of their live performances and overall musicality.
In the review, Lefsetz says, “The first thing insiders would say is…TOO MANY PLAYERS! Do you really need a horn section? But it’s the full band sound that puts the show over the top, it’s not a freight train mowing you down, but a fire on the mountain that you just cannot ignore, that draws you to it.”
