Deerhoof

On May 7, 2022, Deerhoof delivered a mesmerizing performance at Space Ballroom in Hamden, CT, showcasing their unique blend of experimental rock that has captivated audiences for years. Leading up to this live recording, the band released their album 'Actually, You Can' in 2021, which marked a bold continuation of their inventive sound. This album highlighted their penchant for layered experimentation while fostering engagement with themes of connection and uncertainty. Interestingly, by 2022, Deerhoof was also exploiting the creative potential of collaboration—tying in renditions of works from iconic composers and artists like Raymond Scott and Gary Numan into their setlist. This intertwining of influences during live shows hints at the band's continuous evolution and their knack for mixing the avant-garde with pop sensibilities, reinforcing their status as trailblazers in the indie music scene.
