Wolf Parade

In August 2016, Wolf Parade delivered a memorable live performance of "Mr. Startup" at the Neptune Theatre in Seattle, showcasing their signature sound that blends indie rock with a punch of theatricality. At this point in their career, the band had just released their fourth studio album, "Cry Cry Cry" in October 2017, marking their first album in seven years since their 2010 release, "Expo 86." This live session served as a fantastic way for fans to reconnect with the group's energetic stage presence and poignant lyrics, embodying the anticipation surrounding their return. Interestingly, the performance was part of KEXP's commitment to featuring diverse musical acts from various genres, allowing Wolf Parade to reach a broader audience once again after their hiatus. With the Seattle backdrop, this recording underscores the enduring charm of Wolf Parade, reminding us why they became a favorite among indie rock enthusiasts.
