Tame Impala

When Tame Impala rocked the stage at Boston Calling 2019, they were riding high on the wave of their 2015 album, Currents, which marked a significant shift in their sound towards a more synth-driven, psychedelic pop vibe. This performance of 'Elephant,' a fan favorite from their earlier album Lonerism, emphasized both their roots and evolution, allowing fans to savor the energetic blend of retro and modern influences. It's interesting to note that, during this period, frontman Kevin Parker was also busy working on new material, eventually leading to the release of their acclaimed album The Slow Rush in 2020. The contrast between the raw, heavy sound of 'Elephant' and the polished production of Currents highlights the band's ability to evolve while still holding on to what made them popular in the first place. This live show was a testament to their growth and the deep connection they share with their audience.
