The National é uma banda de rock alternativo formada em 1999 por amigos de Cincinnati, Ohio.
As influências vão de Bruce Springsteen a Tindersticks. E as músicas são escritas e cantadas por Matt Berninger com sua diferente voz de barítono
O resto da banda é formado por dois pares de irmãos: Aaron e Bryce Dessner e Scott e Bryan Devendorf. Padma Newsome, da banda Clogs, frequentemente colabora no teclado e nos arranjos da banda.
Quatro anos de trabalho duro!Neste mês de maio fizemos quatro anos no ar. Continuamos trabalhando na divulgação deste maravilhoso instrumento, obrigado por participar da nossa história!
Letters immediately after a slash (/) are a bass notes. So the “C2 /C /BD/A” is AC2 chord then C bass, B bass, then D chord with an A as the bass note. There were a lot of slashes to keep track of; let me know if I made any mistakes.
It's hard to hear exactly what notes are in the chords, but this sounds close. D=XX0232 D/A=X0023X D4/B=X20032 D4/E=02003X C2=X32033 Asus4=X02230 Em7=022030
