The Band

In June 1976, The Band performed at the Frost Amphitheater in Stanford, delivering a captivating live recording of 'Stage Fright.' This performance came just a year after their fourth studio album, 'Northern Lights – Southern Cross,' which had been released in 1975. Interestingly, 'Stage Fright' is also the title track from their acclaimed 1970 album, signaling the band's evolution and enduring appeal over the years. By this time, The Band had already established themselves as a cornerstone of the rock genre, blending elements of Americana and folk with a soulful twist. Their live performances were known for their heartfelt energy, and this particular concert is a testament to their musical journey, showcasing their tight harmonies and rich instrumentation, alongside the palpable connection they had with their audience.
