The Walkmen

In this electrifying live session on May 3, 2012, at the Brooklyn Academy of Music, The Walkmen delivered a heartfelt performance of "We Can't Be Beat." At this point in their career, the band had just released their sixth studio album, "Heaven," which had come out the previous year in 2012. This album marked a shift towards a more polished sound while still capturing their signature indie rock essence. Notably, "Heaven" received critical acclaim for its lyrical depth and sonic exploration, a perfect segue into the intimate vibes of this live recording. The Walkmen, known for their distinct blend of nostalgia-infused melodies and brooding lyrics, brought that magic to the studio setting. It's a fantastic showcase of their evolution, proving that even after years in the industry, their passion for music and connection with the audience remains as strong as ever.
