The Breeders
The Breeders Live Performance of 'Cannonball' from 1993 Concert
By the end of 1993, The Breeders were riding high on the success of their album "Last Splash," which they had released just a few months earlier in August. This album marked a significant turning point for the band, thanks to the hit single "Cannonball," which blended catchy melodies with a grunge-rock edge, and helped them reach mainstream audiences. Their live performance on December 31, 1993, captures a moment when they were celebrating this newfound fame, and it's particularly interesting to note that this was shortly before the band's hiatus. The mix of raw energy and stage presence in this recording showcases the chemistry of the group at their peak, just before the challenges of lineup changes and personal endeavors would push them into a quieter phase in their journey.
