From an idyllic back porch in Austin, Amason performs ‘Went To War’

The World

We had to take a long taxi ride out to the house where Amason was staying while in Austin for SXSW.

It's sunny and warm in Austin during SXSW, and the Swedish band invited us to their back porch were they were setup to play in a truly idyllic setting.

For this private performance, Amason played their song "Went To War".
