Music Great Lake Swimmers - Tonight

Posted by Ezra Caraeff on Tue, Oct 16 at 1:19 PM

Brew up some SleepytimeŽ Tea and get ready to feel the weight of your eyelids as you watch this dreamy Great Lake Swimmers video for “Backstage With the Modern Dancers.” The Toronto band is known for making songs that shuffle about at a glacial pace, which provides them a perfect vehicle for their slow-built melodies and sad lyrics.

How sad?
Sad enough to make this guy cry like a hysterical little baby.

Great Lake Swimmers perform at Holocene tonight. Bring tissues and a pillow.
