Guided by Voices

In June 2011, Guided by Voices performed live at McCarren Park during the Northside Festival, capturing a moment that highlighted the band's gritty charm after their reunion in 2010. Just prior to this live performance, the band released 'Let's Go Eat the Factory'—their first album featuring the classic lineup since the late ’90s. This album, with its lo-fi ethos and sub-three-minute songs, exemplified the band’s unique DIY spirit. It also marked a return to form, showcasing that even after years apart, their sonic creativity remained as vibrant as ever. The Brooklyn show was a testament to their enduring appeal, with dedicated fans relishing favorite tracks like 'I Am A Scientist.' This live recording captured not just the band’s music but also the palpable energy of a community coming together over shared love for their tunes.
