Pavement

On May 23, 2022, Pavement returned to the stage after a 12-year hiatus for a live performance at The Fonda Theatre in Los Angeles, marking their first show since their 2010 reunion. Just before this electrifying gig, they had released a 2021 box set, "Scattered Pearls," which celebrated their rich discography and included some unreleased material, reigniting interest in their innovative sound. This performance of ‘Grounded’ allowed fans to reconnect with the band's iconic slacker rock vibe, blending nostalgia with the thrill of new live energy. During the show, they effortlessly showcased their lo-fi charm, reminding audiences of their deep influence on 90s indie rock. It's fascinating to think about how this live recording captures both a moment of reunion and a bridging of past and present, doesn't it?
