The Walkmen

In the summer of 2011, The Walkmen were on quite a roll with their career, having just released their album "Lisbon" the previous year. This album marked a significant moment for the band, showcasing their distinctive sound with a more polished, atmospheric quality, which resonated well with fans and critics alike. During their energetic performance of "Blue As Your Blood" at Bonnaroo, the band brought that same intensity and nuance to the stage, captivating the audience in Great Stage Park. Fun fact: 2011 was a European tour year for the band, and their live shows were celebrated for their infectious energy, tying directly into the raw emotion captured in this live recording at Bonnaroo. It’s a prime example of The Walkmen's ability to create a unique, engaging live experience that reflects their artistic growth during this vibrant period.
