U2

In April 2016, U2 was riding high on the success of their 2014 album "Songs of Innocence," which was released under a rather unique circumstance—it was automatically added to every iTunes account upon its launch. This bold move sparked widespread debate about music distribution and consumer rights. By the time they received the Innovator Award at the iHeartRadio Music Awards in Los Angeles, the band had solidified their status as rock icons while continuing to evolve their sound and approach. The live recording captures a moment of celebration and recognition for a group that has continually pushed musical boundaries and engaged in social activism. Fun fact: U2's frontman, Bono, has been an outspoken advocate for various global causes, and his passion often infuses their performances with a deeper meaning, reflecting their commitment to making a positive impact beyond just music.
