Parquet Courts

On May 27, 2014, Parquet Courts delivered a high-energy performance at The Independent in San Francisco, showcasing their dynamic sound that blends punk and art rock. This concert followed the release of their album 'Sunbathing Animal,' which hit the shelves just a few days earlier, on June 3, 2014. The album marks a significant moment in their career, as it reflects their evolving musical style and growing prominence in the indie rock scene. Interestingly, 'Ducking & Dodging,' performed live in this recording, highlights their witty lyricism and intricate instrumentation, capturing the raw essence of their live shows. It’s a snapshot of a band on the brink of broader recognition, crafting music that feels both timely and timeless.
