Sleater-Kinney Performance of 'The Center Won't Hold' LIVE at The Observatory
On November 13, 2019, Sleater-Kinney performed live at The Observatory in Santa Ana, promoting their album "The Center Won't Hold," which had just been released a few months earlier in August of the same year. This album marked a significant moment in the band's career, as it was their first with producer Justin Tranter, adding a different sonic texture to their iconic sound. The show captured the raw energy of their punk roots while also showcasing a new direction that resonated with both long-time fans and newcomers. Interestingly, the performance came right at a time when the band was redefining their dynamic, especially after the return of drummer Janet Weiss, adding layers of excitement and anticipation to their shows. This live recording is a testament to their evolution as artists and their commitment to pushing boundaries, proving that even after two decades, they still have plenty to say.
