Pearl Jam

Pearl Jam was riding high on a wave of both nostalgia and new energy during their live concert at the Hippodrome de Longchamp in Paris on July 17, 2022. Prior to this performance, they released "Gigaton" in March 2020, which was their first studio album in seven years. It's packed with fresh sounds that reflect the band's evolution while staying true to their roots—think gripping riffs intertwined with introspective lyrics. The live set showcased significant fan favorites like "Even Flow" and "Corduroy," along with their take on Pink Floyd’s "Interstellar Overdrive," which was a surprising nod to their eclectic influences. Interestingly, the band members have maintained a deep connection with their fans over the years, using concerts as a venue not just to perform, but to create a shared experience, turning each show into a unique communal gathering. With a mix of the old and the new, this concert exemplified why Pearl Jam remains a powerful force in rock music today.
