The National are not your typical blog-buzz band, but as Spinner found out during the band's Interface set, they're not your typical wedding band either. On the cover on their 'Boxer' LP, they're seen performing at a wedding -- an actual wedding.Guitarist Aaron Dessner told Spinner, "It was actually our producer Peter Katis' wedding and we were just there as guests. Some friends of ours suggested we play Peter and Ann's favorite song, 'The Geese of Beverly Road,' and we got up and played."
The National played four songs from their new album for the Interface. Download them all after the jump.

Awesome set. This record is going to get a lot of praise for Album of the Year.
