Deerhoof
Deerhoof Live Performance of +81 at Stanley Park Singing Exhibition
In August 2008, Deerhoof was riding high on their acclaimed album, "Friend Opportunity," which they released just a year prior. This period marked a pivotal time in their career as they embraced a more experimental sound, reflecting their trademark blend of avant-garde and pop sensibilities. The live recording at Malkin Bowl in Vancouver, part of the Stanley Park Singing Exhibition where Neko Case hosted, showcases their dynamic performance style. Interestingly, Deerhoof's innovative approach to music often involves playful melodies mixed with disjointed rhythms, making them a standout act in the indie scene. As they captivated the audience in this live setting, they demonstrated a unique energy that would continue to evolve in their subsequent works.
