Blur

In July 2015, when Blur took the stage at the Splendour In The Grass Festival, they were riding high on the wave of their album "The Magic Whip." Released earlier that same year, this album marked a significant moment in their career as it was their first release in over a decade. It was crafted during a period of experimentation, capturing a mix of new sounds while echoing their Britpop roots. The festival setting added a unique energy to the live performance, showcasing tracks like "Go Out" and "Lonesome Street," both of which received an enthusiastic response from fans. Interestingly, the band had reunited in 2009, and this live recording showcased not just their nostalgia-tinted hits but also how they continued to evolve their sound, illustrating that while they honor their legacy, they also embrace fresh creativity. It was a moment where past and present harmoniously collided, resonating with both old fans and new.
