ACL: Swedish trio plays synth-pop delights
Miike Snow took the Honda Stage on Friday at Austin City Limits during the heat of the day. However, no one would be able to tell the temperature was rising by the looks of the band. Dressed in their trademark black jumpsuits and chrome masks, the Swedish three piece immediately got the whole crowd dancing with their hard-hitting, heavy-bass infused electropop music. About halfway through Miike Snow’s set, lead singer Andrew Wyatt invited Vampire Weekend’s lead singer, Ezra Koenig on stage. With the addition of Koenig’s fine-tuned vocals, Miike Snow performed their remixed cover of Vampire Weekend’s “The Kids Don’t Stand a Chance.”
