Sweet

By August 2024, The Sweet were riding high with their legacy long secured in rock history. Leading up to the live recording of 'Ballroom Blitz' at the Wacken Open Air, the band had recently put out their album 'Isolation Boulevard' in 2022. It showcased their ability to blend classic glam rock vibes with contemporary sounds. A fun fact about The Sweet is their reputation for high-energy live performances, and Wacken's massive crowd is a true testament to their enduring fan base. Playing 'Ballroom Blitz,' their iconic hit from the 1973 album 'Desolation Boulevard,' allowed them not only to dive deep into nostalgia but also to introduce newer fans to their electrifying sound. For a band that started in the glam rock era, their presence at a heavy music festival like Wacken highlights their versatility and how they've continued to evolve with the times.
