Nation of Language

Really short set but we got to hear 2 new songs among some favorite classics! They are so freaking good live, a definite must for live music fans!

They take the best of 80s brooding synth sounds and make it all their own. The live renditions of their songs sounded loose and full of energy. Loved finally hearing them live!

Nation of Language is a truly authentic modern day 80s new wave band. They put on such a great show and the music was encompassing. I completely plan on seeing them again when they are on tour. The show was one of the best I’ve been to in a while. 10/10 across the board. They have quickly become one of my new favorite bands. Highly recommend!

Absolutely fucking amazing. This band sounds better live than hearing them through a speaker. Their energy with the crowd, plus talent, made for Perfection. I drove 3 hours to see them and worth it 110%. Although a very cool venue, wish it would have been bigger. Packed with no room to dance to this incredible music. And when you're standing next to a bunch of duds that don't move to the music, cramps the people who actually want to engage and dance to this highly dance worthy sound.

incredible band, exquisite performance. glitter bomb synth-swept grooves coordinated with deep canyon-esque bass lines & masterful stage presence.

They were awesome!! Crowd was really into it, great vibes! They sounded solid and the vocals were perfect!t

A Gretsch, a Moog & Ian on an open dance floor in an ole spaghetti house made for a magical brisk November night. There was a subtle resemblance to my 1980's college years of listening to Orchestral Meanuvers in the Dark: the syth pioneers.

Excellent performance of incredibly infectious yet heartfelt synth-pop!!! They sounded BETTER then the records. All three band members were genuinely into the songs, despite the fact they’re playing them almost every night on tour. They put so much into it and you can tell they love these songs and love playing them for a live audience. The crowd recognized that vibe and was so cool and enthusiastically into it, the band seemed really appreciative and commented on it a couple of different times. I don’t think they thought Ft Worth TX was going to be a great show for them and the Cowtown crowd really surprised them. This show was a great time and if your sitting on the fence about whether to go or not - DO IT. Put on your dancing shoes and take your best gal or guy for a really great show!!

This show was awesome! This was my second time seeing Nation and they always put on a great show!

Absolutely brilliant! They bring it. Amazing stage presence and passionate delivery of their songs. Truly worth it to see them live! Such a treat!

NOL were amazing live. They sound so good!! Absolutely knocked it out of the park!! Can’t wait to see them again on wed.

🔥🔥🔥 Truly amazing and memorable performance - NoL were in top form and crushed it!

Loved it! Devaney’s voice is even better live! If you get a chance to see NOL live, take it, you won’t be disappointed. Great venue as well, never been to Heaven before – I prefer small venues and this is a better one.

Such a great show! Love the Ottobar! This band is just freaking amazing. Such a great energy and I really liked the new stuff!

Great gig of two fantastic bands. Nation of Language's songs are part of the soundtrack of my life. I loved dancing its songs a couple of meters far from them.

Despite of technical problems that led to a 5 minute pause in the set, it was a brilliant concert.

Incredible show. Such an amazing performance from the band. Loved the energy and passion. Was a little surprised they didn't play "Friend Machine" but I guess they're leaning more heavily to their new material.

Bought the ticket on a whim after looking for something to do on a Friday night. The Spotify tracks are pretty good but do not do the live performance justice. Awesome show, and I’ll be back!!!

Love this band! But the show was super early which kind of sucks. Done by 830!

What a show. Fantastic musicians, great dance moves, were really stoked to play here. Crowd loved it. 10/10, please come back to sf soon!
