Pixies

The live performance of "Gouge Away" by Pixies for BBC Radio 6 Music took place during a period of significant resurgence for the band. This performance occurred in 2019, a time when they were promoting their most recent album, "Beneath the Eyrie," released in September of the same year. This album marked a continued evolution of their sound following their reunion in 2004 after a brief hiatus. Notably, "Gouge Away" originates from their acclaimed 1989 album "Doolittle," which remains one of their signature tracks. The BBC Radio session showcases the band's enduring influence in alternative rock, bringing together both classic material and newer work, highlighting their ability to captivate audiences across generations. The setting of the performance also illustrates their ongoing relevance in contemporary music culture.
