Pinegrove

On April 28, 2017, Pinegrove performed at the First Unitarian Church in Philadelphia, delivering a captivating rendition of "New Friends." This live recording came right after their sophomore album, "Cardinal," which was released in February 2016. "Cardinal" marked a significant point in their career, propelling them into the indie rock spotlight and showcasing their unique blend of storytelling and emotional resonance. By 2017, Pinegrove had already cultivated a dedicated following, largely thanks to their intimate and reflective lyrics. It’s interesting to note that this performance captured the band just as they were gaining momentum, transitioning from an underground favorite to a more widely recognized act. The intimate setting of the church complemented their sound perfectly, reinforcing that personal connection fans appreciate in their music.
