Parquet Courts

In March 2013, Parquet Courts delivered an electrifying performance of 'Stoned and Starving' at KEXP's showcase in Austin, during the bustling SXSW festival. At this point in their career, the band had just released their debut album, 'Light Up Gold,' which came out in 2013 and was vital in cementing their presence in the indie rock scene. This album, characterized by its clever lyrics and infectious energy, led Parquet Courts to gain a loyal following. Fun fact: the performance took place at Mellow Johnny's Bike Shop, a hub of creativity and culture, blending music with the spirit of the biking community. This live recording captures the raw enthusiasm and energetic vibe of Parquet Courts, showing they were ready to make waves in the music industry.
