Modest Mouse
Modest Mouse Live Performance of Autumn Beds at Ithaca State Theater
In the vibrant setting of the State Theatre in Ithaca, NY, the recording of "Modest Mouse live Autumn Beds" on November 30, 2016, highlighted a pivotal moment for the band as they were deep into their "Strangers to Ourselves" tour. This tour followed their 2015 album, which marked their first studio release in eight years since "We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank". It's fascinating to note that during that hiatus, Modest Mouse's sound evolved—expanding their already eclectic style while still maintaining their signature introspective lyrics. The band’s frontman, Isaac Brock, known for his transient yet profound storytelling, channels raw emotion during this live performance, engaging the audience in a way that studio recordings simply can't capture. This concert was not just a showcase of new material; it was a reminder that Modest Mouse continues to shape and redefine their space in the alternative rock landscape.
