Japandroids

In this live recording from March 15, 2017, at The Fillmore in San Francisco, Japandroids performed "The Nights of Wine and Roses" amidst an electrifying atmosphere that mirrored their energetic sound. Leading up to this performance, the band had released their third album, "Near to the Wild Heart of Life," in January 2017, showcasing their evolution while remaining true to their gritty, anthemic style. This album was significant for the duo as it marked their return after a four-year hiatus since "Celebration Rock". The duo's charismatic stage presence is palpable in this clip, with Brian King and David Prowse's playful banter hinting at their bond. Fun fact: The band's self-descriptive comment about feeling like they were at a prom adds a layer of humor, illustrating their down-to-earth nature despite their rockstar persona. This performance encapsulates a moment of their growth while celebrating their roots.
