Pulp
Live Performance of If You Want Me To by Moon Bride & Jason Scavone at Pulp
Before their live performance on August 18, 2022, Pulp had recently reunited for a series of shows after a significant hiatus, reigniting interest in their work. Particularly fascinating is the context of their career: the band's last studio album, 'This Is Hardcore,' released back in 1998, had set a high bar for them with its dark themes and rich storytelling. This live recording, performed at The Orange Peel in Asheville, NC, captures the excitement of their reunion and hints at the nostalgia that fans might relive in their setlist. During this period, Pulp's influence was palpable, being celebrated for their unique blend of Britpop and lyrical storytelling – a reminder of the power of community and music in bringing people together. This performance, echoing the band's distinctive sound and charm, showcases why they remain an iconic presence in music.
