Parquet Courts

In June 2018, Parquet Courts performed 'Light Up Gold II' at The Ready Room in St. Louis, marking a vibrant moment in their career following the release of their album 'Wide Awake!' which came out just a month earlier, in May 2018. This album showcased their evolving sound, blending elements of punk, art-rock, and indie, while crafting lyrics that delve into social commentary and personal introspection. Interestingly, 'Wide Awake!' was well-received and highlighted their dynamic growth as a band, contrasting against their earlier, rawer work in 'Light Up Gold.' This live recording captures the band's infectious energy and distinctively sharp lyrical style, reminding fans why Parquet Courts has carved out a unique niche in the indie scene, known for their engaging and thought-provoking performances.
