Modest Mouse

In April 2013, Modest Mouse was riding high on the wave of their cinematic and eclectic sound that had been honed through years of experimentation. Just before this live recording at Coachella, the band had released their album 'Strangers to Ourselves' in March 2015, marking their first full studio album in nearly a decade. This timeframe saw them embracing a diverse range of influences, a characteristic really highlighted during their live performances. The energy at the Rialto Theatre in Tucson reflected their evolving sound, with tracks that interwove introspective lyrics and infectious melodies. Interestingly, the band had gone through several lineup changes and challenges, which only fueled their creative fire. It's fascinating how their live shows encapsulate this journey—full of raw emotion, a touch of dissonance, and that unmistakable Modest Mouse spirit.
