Dinosaur Jr.

In September 2012, when Dinosaur Jr. performed "In A Jar" live on KEXP at the Doug Fir Lounge during MusicfestNW, the band was experiencing a notable resurgence in their career. This performance came shortly after the release of their album "I Bet on Sky," which debuted just a few days earlier on September 18, 2012. The album showcased the band's signature blend of fuzzy guitar riffs and melodic sensibilities, continuing to solidify their influence in the alternative rock scene. Notably, "I Bet on Sky" was part of a celebrated era for Dinosaur Jr., marking their third album since reuniting in 2005 after a lengthy hiatus. The performance on KEXP captured the raw energy and enduring appeal of their music, providing fans a chance to reconnect with their classic sound and new material alike. The event further underscored the band’s longstanding connection with their audience and their pivotal role in the underground rock movement.
