Geese Win First Award, Say “Free Palestine, Fuck ICE, Go Geese!”

Lewis Evans

It was bound to happen. With all the momentum and universal praise, Geese were destined to win their first award. Who would've thought it would be a BRIT Award? The Brooklyn indie rockers won International Group Of The Year tonight, and drummer Max Bassin accepted the award at Manchester's Co-op Live, saying, “Free Palestine, fuck ICE, go Geese!”

Geese were up against HAIM, HUNTR/X, Tame Impala, and Turnstile. Geese just completed a Japan run where Cameron Winter and Mac DeMarco visited city pop legend Haruomi Hosono and also sang his song at karaoke. They also dropped their live album, Geese: Live At Third Man Records, yesterday. And, as you probably already know, they did a Tiny Desk Concert earlier this month.
