Biography

Setting up their tunes in a creative territory amid American electric rock and indie rock's mellowest tunes, the National ultimately present melodious and inspiring compositions enlightened by a set of influences including country-rock and even British pop/rock. Originally coming from Ohio, the band eventually formed in New York in the late '90s, with a five-piece lineup, embodied by brothers Scott (guitar) and Bryan Devendorf (drums), Aaron (bass) and Bryce Dessner (guitar), and vocalist Matt Berninger. ~ Mario Mesquita Borges
