The National is an American rock band formed in Brooklyn, New York City, in 1999. The band includes Matt Berninger (vocals), twin brothers Aaron Dessner (guitar, piano, keyboards) and Bryce Dessner (guitar, piano, keyboards), as well as brothers Scott Devendorf (bass) and Bryan Devendorf (drums). Longtime touring members Ben Lanz (trombone, synthesizers) and Kyle Resnick (trumpet, keyboards, backing vocals) have also performed with the band. Berninger's wife, Carin Besser, has contributed lyrics since the 2007 album Boxer. The band was founded by Berninger, the Dessner brothers, and the Devendorf brothers. Their debut album, The National, was released in 2001 on Brassland Records, an independent label founded by Aaron and Bryce Dessner. Bryce Dessner participated as a full member starting with the follow-up album, Sad Songs for Dirty Lovers, released in 2003. The band signed with Beggars Banquet Records and released their third album, Alligator, in 2005. Their fourth and fifth albums, Boxer (2007) and High Violet (2010), received critical acclaim and increased their exposure.

The National's frontman will perform three intimate UK shows with Q&A sessions in April, previewing songs from his upcoming solo album.

The National's frontman collaborates with producer Sean O'Brien and various musicians on his second solo album, recorded in California.

The live album, featuring 21 tracks spanning the band's career, was recorded at a show in Rome.

Rather than sad-sounding indie for 6 Music dads, they deliver a set that's anything but melancholic.

The National have added a performance at Cardiff Castle to their 2024 UK and Ireland tour, with support from Unknown Mortal Orchestra.

Feat. Phoebe Bridgers.

They'll be joined by This Is The Kit.

"Crystal Palace is a new neighbourhood to us, although not to the football fans in the band."
