Sleater‐Kinney

In the summer of 2000, Sleater-Kinney was riding high on their critically acclaimed album 'The Hot Rock,' which had been released just the year before. This live performance at Ladyfest in Olympia, Washington, showcases the band's dynamic energy and feminist punk ethos during a pivotal moment in their career. By this time, they had firmly established themselves as icons within the riot grrrl movement, known for their raw sound and thoughtful lyrics. 'I'm Not Waiting,' a standout track from their earlier album, beautifully captures their unique style. Interestingly, this performance also highlights their strong connection to the Olympia music scene, a hub for indie rock during the 1990s and early 2000s. It’s a special moment that resonates deeply with fans who appreciate Sleater-Kinney's impact on music and culture.
