Wintersleep and Frightened Rabbit have a long and entangled history. I saw both bands for the first time back in 2013 when I didn't let a lack of proper equipment or proximity to the stage prevent me with taking some truly breathtaking concert photos. Check 'em out if you dare. And compare them to the shots I got of FR this time here.

The two bands are touring again together on a tour that featured a two-night stand at Toronto's Mod Club. Sadly, Wintersleep suffered some van trouble and had to bow out of the first night. For the second night they cobbled together an acoustic three-piece. I frankly loved the performance and really enjoyed hearing the songs in a stripped-down format which made for an intimate performance. Unfortunate circumstances that led to a fantastic result.

Check out a few of my favourites from their set:

Frightened Rabbit's singer Scott Hutchison joined the band for vocals on "Dead Letter and the Infinite Yes"

Their first ever live performance of "Spring"

"Weighty Ghost"

"Amerika"

"Listen"
