Mazzy Star

Mazzy Star, known for their ethereal sound blending alternative rock and dream pop, was enjoying a resurgence of interest around the time of the live recording of "Fade Into You." The song was originally released on their 1993 album, "So Tonight That I Might See," which is perhaps their most iconic work, helping to cement their status in the music scene. By the time of the live performance likely captured in the video, the band had released "Among My Swan" in 1996, showcasing their signature melancholy and haunting melodies. Interestingly, despite their critical acclaim and cult following, Mazzy Star maintained a relatively low profile in the years following their initial success, only returning to the studio for new material after a prolonged hiatus. Their sound and aesthetic, notably in tracks like "Fade Into You," continue to influence a range of contemporary artists, illustrating their lasting impact on the music landscape.
