On October 6, 2014, The New Pornographers performed a live session at the KEXP studio in Seattle, showcasing their vibrant indie-pop sound. This performance occurred shortly after the release of their album "Brill Bruisers," which came out in August 2014. The album was notable for its return to a more upbeat musical style, following the more subdued tone of the previous project, "Together," released in 2010. The live set included tracks like "Brill Bruisers" and "Dancehall Domine," which highlight the band's energetic and eclectic nature. Interestingly, the performance was hosted by Cheryl Waters, a well-known KEXP DJ, adding a personal touch to the session. By this time, The New Pornographers had solidified their reputation in the indie music scene, celebrated for their harmonically rich compositions and engaging live performances.
