Jane’s Addiction

In the performance of "Just Because" at the John Anson Ford Theater in Los Angeles, recorded on October 3, 2011, Jane's Addiction showcased their unique blend of alternative rock, which had solidified them as pioneers in the genre. This live recording came shortly after the release of their album "The Great Escape Artist," which had dropped a year earlier in 2011. What’s fascinating is that this was a significant period for the band, marking their first studio album in eight years since "Strays" in 2003. Their return not only revitalized old fans but also welcomed new listeners to their eclectic sound, combining heavy guitars and Perry Farrell's iconic vocals. The Ford Theater’s intimate setting added a special touch to this live performance, making it a memorable occasion in the band’s storied career.
