Pearl Jam

As of May 30, 2024, when Pearl Jam performed "Waiting For Stevie" at the Climate Pledge Arena in Seattle, they had just released their twelfth studio album, "Dark Matter." This album showcases the band’s continued evolution, blending their iconic grunge roots with fresh sounds and themes relevant to today’s socio-political landscape. Interestingly, "Dark Matter" also marks a return to their signature style—raw, emotive, and layered with thought-provoking lyrics. The live performance itself, recorded by John Burton and mixed by Brett Eliason, reflects the band’s unparalleled energy and commitment to connecting with fans, especially in their hometown of Seattle. It’s remarkable how, even after three decades, Pearl Jam maintains their spirit and passion, proving that their music isn't just timeless—it's as relevant as ever.
