The National

As I said in my last post , my trip to London and to the summer fun at Hyde Park was more to see The National than Neil Young. I love Neil and wanted to see him again but The National was the attraction.

The National are a band that demonstrates how important 6 Music has become , for me at least, as a way of discovering new bands in the same way that John Peel used to be for me particularly as a teenager.

If you haven't listened to BBC 6 Music do so now, if you like any of the music I post occasionally on this blog you will love it.

Here is a link to The National's website, you can listen to and watch them perform some of their music.
