MGMT Live Performance of Kids at Astra Kulturhaus Berlin

Date: March 10, 2013

In March 2013, MGMT performed live at Astra Kulturhaus in Berlin, a pivotal moment as they were promoting their self-titled album released shortly after, in September 2013. The band had seen incredible success with their debut album 'Oracular Spectacular,' but by this time, they were navigating a new musical direction that diverged from their previous hits. A fun fact: during this period, MGMT encouraged fans to experience their live shows as a departure from the 'radio-friendly' tunes that made them famous. This performance of 'Kids,' one of their most recognizable songs, stood out not just for its infectious melody but also for the band's evolving stage presence and commitment to experimental sound. The live rendition was a testament to their journey and willingness to challenge expectations, making it a memorable chapter in their discography.
