The Pretenders Live in Detroit: Full Concert Performance at The Shelter
On September 5, 2023, The Pretenders delivered an electrifying performance at The Shelter in Detroit, marking a vibrant chapter in their storied career. This show followed the release of their 2020 album 'Hate for Sale,' which was celebrated for its raw energy and return to classic Pretenders vibes. With the lineup featuring frontwoman Chrissie Hynde, the band's ability to resonate with both longtime fans and new listeners shines brilliantly in live recordings. Interestingly, this concert happened during a period where the band was reconnecting with their roots, capturing that signature blend of rock and punk that's been their trademark since the late '70s. Not only does this recording showcase their enduring appeal, but it also highlights the band's consistent evolution while staying true to their powerful sound.
