Pinegrove

In the summer of 2016, Pinegrove was riding high on the momentum of their breakout album, 'Cardinal,' which had been released earlier that year. This album showcased their unique blend of indie rock and alt-country, capturing the hearts of many with its reflective lyrics and intricate instrumentation. The live performance at Louie's Back Room in Kalamazoo on July 30, 2016, marked a vibrant moment in their career as they transitioned from local favorites to a broader audience. Interestingly, their sound embodies a sense of intimacy, even in larger venues, and this particular performance likely highlighted their raw, emotive style that fans had come to adore. Plus, recording a new song live during this era hints at their creative energy and desire to push musical boundaries, a hallmark of Pinegrove's artistry.
