Modest Mouse

In July 2012, when Modest Mouse performed 'Float On' during their encore at the Wellmont Theater, they were riding the wave of their 2007 album 'We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank.' This album marked a pivotal point in their career, as it debuted at number one on the Billboard 200, showcasing the band's blend of indie rock and experimentation with a more accessible sound. The live performance captures their energy and the excitement of a band that had found renewed success after a bit of a hiatus. Interestingly, the band faced ups and downs, including shifts in their lineup and dealing with the pressures of fame, but moments like this remind us of their lasting impact and connection with fans.
