Even before the gates had opened on the first day of the Sasquatch! Music Festival, we managed to get backstage of the Gorge Amphitheater early to capture a live session with one of the hottest new bands to hit the festival circuit, Of Monsters and Men. No strangers to natural beauty, the Icelanders were nevertheless stunned by the picturesque backdrop of the Gorge as they performed "Mountain Sound," one of the new songs added to the American release of their debut album. "We sleep until the sun goes down" they sang repeatedly as instead the sun broke through the clouds as if called out by their radiant optimism. The band will continue to thrill fans in larger and larger venues, but it's private moments like this when Of Monsters and Men best display their natural charm.
