Japandroids

In 2013, Japandroids was riding high on the wave of their acclaimed album 'Celebration Rock,' which had been released just the year before. This album catapulted them to new heights, solidifying their reputation for explosive performances and anthemic songs that resonate with youthful exuberance. The live recording at Bonnaroo captures the band just as they were basking in this success, performing tracks that embody the raw energy and impassioned spirit they've become known for. A particularly interesting note is that 'Celebration Rock' was praised not just for its sound, but for its ability to evoke a sense of camaraderie and nostalgia among fans—something clearly palpable in their live shows. Their Bonnaroo setlist, infused with adrenaline and nostalgia, demonstrates why Japandroids are often celebrated as one of the most exhilarating live acts of their generation.
