Pixies - Live Performance of 'Head On' at Where the Action Is Festival in Stockholm

Venue: Stora skuggan Location: Stockholm, Stockholm County, Sweden Date: June 12, 2009

In June 2009, the Pixies delivered a dynamic live performance at the Where the Action Is festival in Stockholm, a notable milestone in their career as they showcased their signature sound. By this time, the band had recently released "Indie Cindy," their first studio album in over two decades, which came out in April 2014. This album marked a significant moment, as it was their return to original music after a long hiatus, reigniting their legacy in the indie rock scene. Interestingly, during this performance, they covered "Head On" by the Jesus and Mary Chain, a nod to their post-punk contemporaries and perhaps a reflection of their own experimental roots. Despite the years that had passed, the Pixies maintained their raw energy and captivating stage presence, reminding fans why they were so influential in the alternative rock landscape. It’s moments like these, deep in the heart of Sweden, that capture their enduring legacy.
