If you feel that Vincent Moon has been quieter than normal lately then let us tip you off: he’s been working on a documentary about The National and the making of Boxer. It’ll be called “A Skin, A Night” and is coming out this summer. We may or may not have stolen a copy of the accompanying CD from the Beggars offices when we were there - new National songs! See a sneak peek of the movie.
We’ve heard a few inside scoop things about the movie - band coming into their own, singer struggling with the exposure that comes with songwriting - all stuff that makes us want to see it and rescore John Hughes movies with it.
As you may know, you can also catch The National currently on tour with R.E.M.
