Editors found the perfect setting for their darkness among the lakes and forests of the Netherlands. The British indie rockers played Best Kept Secret 2016 at Beekse Bergen park in Hilvarenbeek, one of Europe’s most atmospheric festivals, and the scenic backdrop suited their blend of melancholy and dramatic energy. Led by the charismatic Tom Smith, the band let each chord ring out through the forest stillness, their dark synth lines and guitar swells pulling the crowd into a world where longing and hope intertwine. The set arrived as Editors promoted their fifth studio album ‘In Dream’, and it was among the first to showcase the new material and its turn toward a more electronic sound. The performance stands as a striking display of the band’s command of mood and crowd.
