Chrisse Hynde and the Pretenders Perform Thumbelina Live at Farm Aid
In September 2008, Chrissie Hynde and the Pretenders delivered a heartfelt performance of "Thumbelina" at the Farm Aid concert, held at the Comcast Center in Mansfield, Massachusetts. This live recording came just a couple of years after the band released their album "Break Up the Concrete" in 2008, showcasing their continued evolution in sound and style. Interestingly, this album marked a return to their roots, embracing a mix of rock with a touch of Americana, aligning perfectly with the Farm Aid mission of supporting family farmers. The band's commitment to social issues, alongside their music, adds a rich layer to their identity, making their live performances not just concerts, but impactful statements. Hynde's passionate vocals during this particular show resonate deeply with the essence of the event, blending their artistic expression with the cause.
