Yeah Yeah Yeahs Performance of Zero Live at Oxegen 2009 in Challenging Weather
In 2009, when the Yeah Yeah Yeahs performed 'Zero' live at the Oxegen Festival in Ireland, they were riding high on the waves of their critically acclaimed album, 'It's Blitz!' which had been released just a few months earlier in March. This record marked a significant evolution in their sound, incorporating more electronic elements and showcasing Karen O's dynamic vocal range. The live performance, set against the often chaotic backdrop of wind and rain, underlined the band's raw energy and stage presence. It’s interesting to note that 'It's Blitz!' was a bold step for the band, signaling their willingness to experiment with new styles while still delivering the infectious energy that fans adored. The festival crowd, braving the elements, highlighted the passionate connection the Yeah Yeah Yeahs fostered with their audience, making this moment a memorable chapter in their career.
