Pixies

On September 8, 2023, the Pixies performed "Cactus" live at the Climate Pledge Arena in Seattle, a standout track from their iconic 1988 debut album, *Surfer Rosa*. This performance comes in the wake of their 2022 release, *Doggerel*, which showcased their continued evolution while maintaining that quintessential Pixies sound. It's interesting to note that the Pixies have managed to remain relevant and influential across decades, largely thanks to their signature blend of punk rock energy and melodic hooks. The band’s live shows are often a mix of nostalgia and fresh artistry, making each performance unique. With Seattle being a pivotal city in the grunge movement, it’s fitting that they played in such a legendary venue where many artists have left their mark. Plus, the excitement of seeing them perform "Cactus," a song that highlights their raw lyrical prowess, truly encapsulates what makes the Pixies such a beloved band in the indie rock landscape.
