The Breeders Live Performance of Cannonball at London's I.C.A.

Venue: Institute of Contemporary Arts Location: London, England, United Kingdom Date: July 22, 1993

In July 1993, The Breeders were riding high on the success of their landmark album "Pod," which had helped redefine the alternative rock scene. This live performance of "Cannonball" at London's Institute of Contemporary Arts showcases the band's raw energy and distinctive sound, just as they were gaining traction following the album's release in 1990. Interestingly, during this period, the Breeders were led by Kim Deal, who was also a key member of the iconic band Pixies. This dual role contributed to the unique blend of styles in their music. The crowd can be seen fully engaged, a testament to their growing popularity. Despite the noted poor sound quality, the performance captures the gritty charm that characterized their early work.
