Deerhunter
Deerhunter Live Performance of Fluorescent Grey in Duluth, GA
In 2008, when Deerhunter performed 'Fluorescent Grey' live in Duluth, GA, they were riding high after the release of their breakthrough album, 'Microcastle.' This record showcased the band's eclectic sound, blending elements of shoegaze with punk and experimental rock, helping them gain significant traction in the indie music scene. 'Microcastle,' along with its companion piece 'Weird Era Cont.,' was released just months prior to this performance, in October 2008, marking a pivotal moment in their career. Interestingly, during this period, Deerhunter was known not just for their music but also for their charismatic live performances that often created an almost hypnotic atmosphere, much to the delight of fans. The Duluth show opened for Nine Inch Nails, allowing Deerhunter to reach new audiences and cement their status as a must-see band at that time.
