Bright Eyes

Before the live recording of "Something Vague" at Westfair Amphitheater on June 4, 2011, Bright Eyes was basking in the glow of their critically acclaimed album *The People’s Key*, released earlier that year. This release marked a notable shift for the band, intertwining Conor Oberst's poignant lyrics with a more polished and electronic sound, broadening their artistic palette. The performance of "Something Vague," a heartfelt gem from *Fevers and Mirrors*—their earlier, more introspective work—reveals a rich contrast between their evolving sound and the raw emotional intensity fans had come to love. Interestingly, 2011 was a pivotal point for Bright Eyes, as it not only showcased their live capabilities but also hinted at Conor Oberst's return to the indie scene after a brief hiatus, making it a special year for both the artist and their loyal followers.
