Parquet Courts

On June 3, 2013, Parquet Courts took the stage at the Rhythm Room in Phoenix, delivering a live performance of their track 'N Dakota.' This show came shortly after the release of their album 'Light Up Gold,' which dropped in August 2013. This album marked a pivotal moment for the band, helping to establish their signature blend of punk rock and art pop. Interestingly, 'Light Up Gold' was initially released by the band themselves before garnering significant attention and receiving a wider release. Their raw energy and witty lyricism were evident during this performance, echoing a vital moment in their career as they were on the cusp of broader recognition. The DIY spirit they embodied is a hallmark of their music, and this live recording captures that essence perfectly.
