Pretenders

Before this live performance at Tivoli Vredenburg on September 21, 2023, The Pretenders released their album "Hate for Sale" in 2020, which marked their first album of original material in nearly a decade. This was a notable time in the band's career as it showcased their resilience and the continued relevance of their sound. "I'll Stand by You," performed in the video, originally appeared on their 1994 album "Last of the Independents," illustrating the band’s ability to blend classic hits with newer material. The band's dynamic frontwoman, Chrissie Hynde, remains the heart and soul of the Pretenders, and her powerful, emotive vocals shine in this live performance. The Tivoli Vredenburg venue, known for its acoustics and vibrant atmosphere, provided a fitting backdrop for a band that has endured the test of time, making the live rendition feel even more special.
