Broken Social Scene

On October 16, 2007, Broken Social Scene played an intimate set at the University of Manchester, presenting 'Safety Bricks' in a unique lineup featuring Kevin Drew and part of the band. This performance came right after their album 'Forgiveness Rock Record,' which was released in May 2010, so fans got a sneak peak of how their music was evolving. At this point, Broken Social Scene was navigating a creative resurgence, bridging the gap between their iconic earlier work, like 'You Forgot It in People,' and their later explorations. Interestingly, the live show showcases Drew's magnetic stage presence, emphasizing the band's signature blend of intricate melodies and rich instrumentation. This performance not only highlights their dynamic sound but also illustrates a moment where the band's core members were pushing boundaries and experimenting, setting the stage for future projects.
