Imagine Dragons Live Performance of 'Demons' and 'Radioactive' at Sziget Festival

Venue: Óbudai-Sziget Location: Budapest, Budapest, Hungary Date: August 13, 2014

Back in 2014, when Imagine Dragons took the stage at the Sziget Festival in Budapest, they were riding a significant wave of success. Their second album, *Smoke + Mirrors*, was released just a few months later, in February 2015. However, at the time of that live recording on August 13, 2014, the band was still basking in the glow of their breakout album, *Night Visions*, which had catapulted them into the spotlight with hits like "Demons" and "Radioactive." Isn’t it fascinating how "Radioactive" became one of the most commercially successful songs of its time, even winning a Grammy? It’s like the song took on a life of its own, resonating across various media and award shows. Performing these tracks live, they really captured the raw energy and connection with fans, a beautiful contrast to the polished production of their studio work. This performance not only showcased their dynamic presence but also set the stage for the evolution of their sound in future albums.
