With seven albums under their belt - four of which made NME’s top 500 albums of all time list - The National are one of the most successful and revered American rock bands in history.

A sincerely conscious and political five-piece, their poetic, melancholic form of indie art-rock has won them awards including a Grammy in 2017, and their headline performance is set to be unmissable.
