Counting Crows Live Performance of 'Anna Begins' at Codfish Hollow Barn

Venue: Codfish Hollow Barnstormers Location: Maquoketa, Iowa, United States Date: July 4, 2012

On July 4, 2012, Counting Crows performed at Codfish Hollow Barn in Maquoketa, Iowa, delivering a live rendition of their poignant track "Anna Begins." By this time, the band was riding the wave of their 2012 album, "Underwater Sunshine (Or What We Did On Our Summer Vacation)," which showcased a collection of covers and original material. It marked a creative resurgence after a period of relative quiet in the late 2000s. Interestingly, the choice of venue—an intimate barn setting—perfectly suited their reflective style, allowing fans to bask in the warmth of their storytelling. Plus, this was a significant year for the band, as they celebrated nearly two decades in the industry, illustrating their enduring appeal and the timeless nature of their music. It's a cozy yet exhilarating snapshot of a band still very much in tune with their roots.
