Big Brother & the Holding Company

In their live performance on July 23, 2022, at the Elks Lodge in San Rafael, Big Brother & the Holding Company showcased a blend of their classic psychedelic rock roots while also revealing the evolution of their sound through newer arrangements. Before this recording, the band had made significant waves with albums like 'Cheap Thrills' in 1968, which catapulted them to fame primarily due to Janis Joplin's powerful vocals. Interestingly, the lineup from this live recording features Darby Gould on vocals, who has brought her unique flair to the band's legacy, connecting the past with the present. Despite years passing since their heyday, the band's ability to captivate audiences remains evident, proving that their musical journey, albeit changed by time, still resonates deeply.
