Road Dawgs - a short film about Future Islands

[@Sasquatch10]

I'm only 23 but this band has had the biggest impact on me since i heard Metallica when i was 13. Next time you guys are in Manchester i plan on putting my anxiety aside and making sure its the first music event i go to.

[@paulavancott9414]

I introduced this band to my daughter, telling her I want to see them after I saw them on David Letterman’s show, then a year or so later, she calls me to say shes at their concert in LA. She had a friend call her up last minute. VIP tickets. I’m still waiting to see them.

'Road Dawgs' - a short film by Future Islands. Directed and shot by Jay Buim.

[@coling.3840]

I saw you guys at The Filling Station in Bozeman, Montana, back in April. I was going through an incredibly rough time in my life (anxiety and depression issues ... you know, typical college stuff) and that show was so uplifting and so powerful that I can honestly identify that night as a turning point for me. Just witnessing a group of people put so much passion and love into their craft, well, it was inspiring, to say the least. So thank you, Future Islands. If you'll let me be hyperbolic ... you might have just saved me.

[@m.d.5279]

That's awesome!!:)

[@hansderaeymaeker9137]

Excellent... mmmmmost excellent!! :)

[@angelaburroughs6244]

Amazing

[@azariahjosiah2123]

i guess im asking randomly but does anyone know a trick to get back into an instagram account? I stupidly forgot the password. I would love any tricks you can offer me.

[@Crazykye321]

Future Islands deserves everything they will ever achieve. One of the hardest working group of dedicated individuals. Winners.

[@allisonfrances7130]

+Kye Lopez Saw them in Newcastle (UK) they were fantastic & met them after the show, nicest most down to earth guys you could ever wish to know. They deserve to go far.

[@chasaandrew6423]

The way the lead singer feels when he talk about what we all need from a singer or a musician on stage is the real duty of all great ones...! We feel it so much with him, more like a craftman, more than most of mainstream artist who don't wanna get anymore into this... There's something worth deep to share this band carry on ! P. S : I really enjoy when I see a short film who doesn't look like a countless narcissistic trip

[@MrBraceface216]

You guys rock my world. For the love of GOD, PLEASE keep doing what you're doing! Future Islands = My absolute favorite band of all time.

[@rasmusmakela1080]

I'll second that. Can't even put it into words how much their music means to me.

[@angelaburroughs6244]

Sean Winterton definitely an amazing group

[@MrFlyingguy]

they chose the hard way - and its paying off..... not a flash in a pan but a sound for a generation and beyond......legacy bruv. respect.

[@americanpancakelive]

Inspirational and moving. Future Islands have always been one of the hardest working bands in the indie world.

[@deepfault]

When you guys played live at the house of vans, I honestly felt it in my heart. Especially when you played the song balance. It was truly beautiful.

[@theraubyreport]

You guys keep garnering new fans. I'm one of them.

[@fleurrrs1068]

Watching this is 2020 to get through the corona-times Big love from the Netherlands

[@THIRV]

Love this band, and its so good to have this short but perfect insight into how the guys feel about touring etc, and also to hear once again just how much the words in the songs mean to Sam at the deepest level when he performs. I really feel Future Islands are the only 'new-ish' band that i can count amongst my favourites of all time, as all the others started out in the late 70s/early 80s (although F.I. Have been going for quite some time now themselves of course)....just so good to have these guys producing such great music, the character behind it all, etc. I wish them all the best of luck.

[@LuisMedinaInformador]

Pure sincerity from the bottom of their hearts. Love to music no to money. You guys could be like Nirvana to me since now.

[@peterfarla]

I saw Future Islands yesterday for the first time live in the Maassilo in Rotterdam. What a performance! Great music, great art!!

[@RuloRevueltas]

Muy orgulloso de mis muchachos, cuando los empece a escuchar casi nadie los conocía, tuve la oportunidad de hacerlo en un video de skateboarding donde ponían de fondo "long flight", busqué esta canción y desde ahí no he parado de disfrutar su música... son lo máximo!!

[@sarahiavila7]

Never stop doing what you guys do, it's amazing

[@flynnterry9848]

Wonderful to watch this band , l have just seen them for the first time on Letterman and they are great hard working guys and very humbling. When you come to London l would love to see them. Sam is a great front man . And they look like a tight group and l love that. I wish you the band future islands all the best and God bless you on your journey. Your brand new fan Terry flynn from London England.

[@TheFireflyGuy]

This is awesome. Keep on truckin' guys....life's all about the journey - who we meet and what we do on it.

[@zaescfgbhnj]

Love Future Islands

[@oahn90]

wow. the piano version of "give us the wind" that comes in at around 3:31 is absolutely heartbreaking in the greatest of ways possible. is there a single of that available/accessible. it's one of my favorite songs, ever.

[@9mermaid9]
