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.
