Guided by Voices

On February 17, 1996, Guided by Voices delivered an electrifying live performance of 'Motor Away' at The Patio in Indianapolis. This show came shortly after the release of their fifth studio album, 'Under the Bushes, Under the Stars' (1996), which had marked a significant chapter for the band, showcasing their evolution in sound while still holding true to their lo-fi roots. Interestingly, this era saw GBV amplifying their presence in the indie music scene, as they began to garner a dedicated fanbase eager for their catchy melodies and vivid storytelling. The band's knack for creating infectious hooks and a DIY ethos resonated well, setting the stage for future successes. This live recording captures the raw energy the group was known for, encapsulating a moment where they were truly on the rise in the underground music landscape.
