Jane’s Addiction

By July 30, 2016, when Jane's Addiction performed 'Just Because' live at the Lollapalooza Music Festival in Chicago, they were celebrating their storied career and rich musical history. Notably, the band had released their fifth studio album, 'The Great Escape Artist,' back in 2011, marking their first new album in 8 years. This performance was part of their ongoing return to live music after years of intermittent activity and lineup changes. Jane's Addiction, known for pioneering the alt-rock genre and infusing punk and funk elements, brought their electric energy to the stage. The song 'Just Because' itself, which appeared on 'Strays' (2003), showcases the band's signature sound blending dynamic riffs with Perry Farrell's captivating vocals. Fans present at the festival undoubtedly experienced a nostalgic moment, seeing a band that played a pivotal role in alternative rock during the late '80s and early '90s.
