Last July, Justin Vernon of Bon Iver and Aaron Dessner of The National launched the Eaux Claires Festival in Eau Claire, Wisconsin, gathering some of their favorite bands for what looked like a gorgeous, idyllic time. We still regret not shutting the office down and going up there. We sent videographer Erika Share to the fest, though, to hang out with Low’s Alan Sparhawk and film his band’s afternoon set. She got him chatting, got a feel for the festival itself—which will return this year—and edited it all into the video above, which features two songs from Low’s excellent new album Ones And Sixes, “No Comprende” and “The Innocents.” Enjoy.
