The live recording of "SWIMMERS" by Broken Social Scene, captured on November 28, 2008, at the Sound Academy in Toronto, falls just after the release of their album "Forgiveness Rock Record." Released in May 2010, this album was a major stepping stone in reaffirming their eclectic sound and the band’s ability to blend multiple genres harmoniously. Interestingly, it's a testament to their collective musicianship, drawing from both familiar faces and new collaborators. As the performance radiates joy, with Emily Haines bringing her signature flair, it encapsulates the essence of friendship and community that often defines their live shows. The energy in the room speaks to the band's grassroots appeal, showcasing why they remain beloved within the Canadian indie rock scene.
