Pixies Perform 'Hey' Live at Isle of Wight Festival 2009

Venue: Isle of Wight Festival Location: Seaclose Park, England, United Kingdom Date: June 13, 2009

In June 2009, the Pixies performed "Hey" at the Isle of Wight Festival, capturing a moment that resonated deeply with fans and new listeners alike. This performance came shortly after their 2004 reunion and around the time of their 2006 release, *Dust to Dust*, a new song unveiled during their reunion tours. Interestingly, while the band had initially disbanded in 1993, they found a resurgence in popularity that led to a fascinating revival of their classic sound, blending punk rock energy and melodic sensibilities. By performing at such a renowned festival, the Pixies not only celebrated their legacy but also introduced their distinctive flair to a fresh audience. It’s a perfect demonstration of how, even years later, their music can still capture hearts and evoke nostalgia for those who grew up on their tracks. What a time to be a fan!
