Broken Social Scene

In the summer of 2008, Broken Social Scene was riding high after releasing their critically acclaimed album 'Forgiveness Rock Record' just a couple of months prior. This was their first full-length project since their 2005 self-titled album, paving the way for a fresh sound yet again while building on their rich, signature indie rock vibe. Their live performance at the 25th Hillside Festival on July 27, 2008, reflected this resurgence, showcasing their eclectic mix of melodies and instrumentation that fans had come to love. The festival draws crowds with its stunning lakeside setting in Guelph, Canada, making it a perfect backdrop for the band’s atmospheric sound. This show was particularly memorable as it captured the essence of their collaborative spirit—a hallmark of the group, filled with various members who brought something unique to every performance.
