Parquet Courts

In February 2018, Parquet Courts delivered a riveting performance of their track 'Dust' at Santa Cruz's Boardwalk's Cocoanut Grove. At this time, they were riding high on the success of their album 'Wide Awake!', which had been released in 2018. This album showcased the band's signature blend of punk rock and art pop, and the live recording captures the raw energy and intricate interplay that Parquet Courts are known for. Interestingly, 'Dust' itself reflects themes of existentialism—making it a particularly poignant choice given the live setting. Fans at the venue likely felt the electric connection between the band and audience, a hallmark of Parquet Courts' performances. As they dove into their set, the fusion of thoughtful lyrics and dynamic instrumentation must have created an unforgettable atmosphere.
