Pixies

In November 2010, when the Pixies performed live at the SWU Festival in Brazil, they were riding a wave of nostalgia and newly rekindled popularity following their reunion in the early 2000s. Just prior to this performance, they had released "Doolittle" as a 20th Anniversary edition in 2009—proof of their lasting influence on the alt-rock scene. The setlist from SWU included classics like "Bone Machine" and "Isla," showcasing their knack for blending raw energy with eclectic soundscapes. By this time, the Pixies had become renowned for their dynamic live performances. Fans were treated not only to nostalgia but also to a celebration of their innovative music, which remains a staple of alternative rock. It's remarkable to reflect on how this band, known for their unconventional style, continues to charm audiences and influence new generations of musicians. A testament to their enduring legacy, wouldn’t you say?
