MGMT

In June 2010, MGMT took the stage at Glastonbury Festival, performing tracks from their album 'Congratulations,' released just a few months prior in April that same year. This album marked a significant evolution for the band, stepping away from the synth-pop sound of their debut 'Oracular Spectacular' to embrace a more experimental approach. The crowd's energy during the performance showcased their shifting reputation, as they sought to redefine their musical identity while navigating the pressures of fame. Interestingly, their Glastonbury set included a passionate rendition of 'Congratulations,' reflecting their ambition to experiment while still keeping audiences engaged. The festival, a legendary platform for artists, served as an ideal backdrop for MGMT’s transition into bolder, more nuanced territory in their music.
