The War on Drugs
Live Performance of Burning by The War on Drugs
On July 21, 2018, The War on Drugs delivered a stunning live performance of "Burning" at Union Park in Chicago. At this point in their journey, they had recently released their critically acclaimed album, "A Deeper Understanding," just a year before, in 2017. This album marked a pivotal moment in their career, earning a Grammy nomination and showcasing their signature blend of rock, Americana, and shoegaze influences. Their live performances often captivate audiences with an emotional depth and sonic richness, which was clearly on display in this recording. Fans often praise the band's ability to translate the ethereal soundscapes of their albums into an electric live experience, and this Chicago show was no exception. The backdrop of a summer night in the Windy City only added to the magic, making it a memorable moment for both the band and their supporters.
