Weezer

In this electrifying live performance of 'Buddy Holly' at the O2 Academy Brixton on July 6, 2011, Weezer was riding high off their album 'Hurley,' which they released in 2010. This album marked a significant moment for the band, as it returned to their roots with a sound reminiscent of their earlier work, embracing a blend of catchy melodies and playful lyrics that fans adore. Fun fact: 'Hurley' features a cover art that highlights actor Jorge Garcia, known for his role in 'Lost,' a nod to the band's affinity for pop culture. By the time of this gig, Weezer was solidifying their reputation for energetic performances, bridging their classics and newer tunes seamlessly, keeping the spirit of their iconic 90s vibe alive and well. This concert reflects not just a snapshot of their ongoing evolution, but also the enduring appeal of their music, captivating both old-school fans and newcomers alike.
