The Walkmen - Live Performance of 'Blue As Your Blood' at KEXP Studio

Venue: Showbox at the Market Location: Seattle, Washington, United States Date: September 8, 2010

On September 8, 2010, The Walkmen performed "Blue As Your Blood" live in the KEXP studio in Seattle, shortly after the release of their fifth studio album, "Lisbon," which came out on September 14, 2010. This album marked a significant moment in their career, as it was well-received and showcased a more atmospheric sound compared to their earlier work. The Walkmen were known for their distinctive indie rock style, characterized by earnest lyrics and a vintage aesthetic, which can be seen in the live performance. Interesting to note is that "Lisbon" was recorded in a house in Lisbon, Portugal, contributing to its unique sonic texture, and the KEXP session served as a platform to highlight this new direction in their music just days before the album's official launch.
