The New Pornographers

In 2017, when The New Pornographers performed live at KEXP, they were promoting their album *Whiteout Conditions*, which was released earlier that same year, on April 7. This album marked their first release after a four-year break since *Brill Bruisers* in 2014, highlighting their return to the spotlight. Notably, *Whiteout Conditions* showcased a distinct embrace of synth-pop influences, reflecting the band's evolving sound. During the KEXP performance, they played several tracks from this album, including "Whiteout Conditions" and "High Ticket Attractions," which further emphasized their growth both artistically and commercially. The performance in the intimate KEXP studio setting allowed fans to experience the band's eclectic energy and dynamic stage presence, while also reinforcing their reputation as a staple in the alternative rock scene.
