10000 Maniacs
10,000 Maniacs - Full Concert at Greek Theatre, Los Angeles - Includes 'These Are Days'
By June 1993, 10,000 Maniacs were riding high on the success of their album "Our Time in Eden," which was released the previous year. This album marked a significant shift for the band, showcasing a more polished sound and mainstream appeal, thanks in part to the departure of lead singer Natalie Merchant and a focus on new directions. During the live performance at the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles, the band showcased tracks like "These Are Days" and "What's the Matter Here?," highlighting their ability to blend introspective lyrics with rich melodies. Interestingly, this concert occurred just ahead of their brief hiatus, after which they would take a step back from the music scene to regroup, reflecting a pivotal moment in their career. It's a gem for fans, capturing the band's vibrant live energy that resonated so well during the early '90s.
