Broken Social Scene

In 2009, Broken Social Scene was in a fascinating phase of their career, having just released 'Forgiveness Rock Record' earlier that same year. This album highlighted their signature blend of indie rock and expansive soundscapes, and it garnered considerable acclaim, showcasing the group's evolution since their earlier work. The live recording at the Harbourfront Centre is particularly significant as it features Emily Haines of Metric, performing 'Gimme Sympathy' alongside the band—a perfect representation of the collaborative spirit that broken Social Scene embodies. The free concert not only provided an opportunity for fans to witness the band's dynamic energy up close but also echoed their cultural impact in the Canadian music scene during this vibrant period. As a pivotal moment in their history, it reinforced their role as a collective music force, highlighting community and collaboration in the indie genre.
