The War on Drugs and Warpaint Celebrate Summer Solstice at The Piece Hall in Halifax [Photos]
Indie band The War On Drugs are joined by Warpaint to celebrate the Summer Solstice at The Piece Hall in Halifax. Check out the photos here.
June 21st, 2023, the Summer Solstice. The longest day of the year in the UK, and as the hazy sun sets down behind the wonderful Piece Hall in Halifax, it’s almost fitting that this packed outdoor courtyard celebrates in the company of ‘cosmic Americana’ band The War on Drugs.
The Philadelphia band is wrapping up a short UK run of dates before heading off to Dublin and then mainland Europe and are joined for the celebration by Los Angeles indie rock band Warpaint who is first to acknowledge the relevance of the date during their set and are almost the perfect warm-up to lead this chilled-out crowd through the early part of this balmy summer evening in Yorkshire.
While the energy levels don’t increase too much by the time the Philadelphia favourites take to the stage, it’s hard to ignore the fact that this audience is completely mesmerized by the sounds woven by this truly wonderful collective.
