Haim have responded to the constant doubt they receive from trolls about not actually playing their instruments when performing.While chatting with NME about the 10th anniversary reissue of their 2013 debut album ‘Days Are Gone’ and their upcoming headlining slot at this year’s All Points East Festival, the sister trio – consisting of Danielle, Este and Alana Haim – also spoke about the hate they receive about their musicianship.Back in June, the band played New York City’s Governors Ball Music Festival.
In a clip posted to NME‘s Instagram of the band performing ‘My Song 5’, the band received a comment that read: “Is it just me or is that bassist just acting?”The band replied: “Lol, I can’t believe this shit is still happening.” In a longer post shared on Haim’s Instagram Story, they wrote: “I’m so used to seeing this shit on every fucking video of us playing ever.”“I’m so over it,” they continued. “Don’t ever say we don’t play our own fucking instruments.”Now, while discussing the interaction in a new interview with NME, the trio revealed the true extent of the comments over their musical ability that they continue to receive.“That video came up on my Instagram and I was like ‘Oh My God.
that’s such a great video, wow!’,” recalled Danielle. “I think the thing that is really frustrating is… there will be amazing videos of us online playing our instruments really well and I’ll look at our comments [not that we sit and look at comments regularly] and I’ll just be shocked that people are still like ‘They’re not playing,’ ‘That’s not real,’ ‘They’re acting’.
It’s unbelievable.“It’s just really disappointing because that’s the thing we worked so fucking hard for our whole lives you know.”Music has played a critical role.
