The National conquered Glastonbury this last week. The proud Ohioans are slowly coming into their own as they realize the tantamount level of popularity they enjoy globally as seen in their performance at the 2017 Glastonbury Music Festival. Lead vocalist Matt Berringer appeared to be enjoying himself on stage in a playful manner foreign to National live shows in his usual “business approach” to entertaining. Watch the quintet completely nail their first live performance of “The System Only Dreams in Total Darkness” with a group of some of their closest friends in the lush fields of Glasto.
