Big Thief Live Performance of 'Mary' at Pitchfork Music Festival 2018

Venue: Union Park Location: Chicago, Illinois, United States Date: July 20, 2018

By the summer of 2018, Big Thief was riding the wave of success following the release of their second album, "Capacity," which debuted in 2017. This album showcased their signature blend of intimate storytelling and intricate instrumentation, confirming their place in the indie folk-rock scene. During their performance of "Mary" at the Pitchfork Music Festival, the band had begun to capture widespread attention, drawing in both dedicated fans and new listeners alike. An interesting tidbit is that the band is known for their deep emotional connections in their songs, and "Mary" is no exception—it's a poignant reflection on love and loss. Their raw energy and authenticity shone brightly during this live recording, illustrating just how far they’d come since their initial debut.
