Pixies

Back in 2014, when the Pixies delivered that electrifying performance of "Blue Eyed Hexe" at the Sydney Opera House, they were riding high on the wave created by their critically acclaimed album, "Indie Cindy." Released just a month before this live recording, in April 2014, "Indie Cindy" marked the band’s first full-length studio album in over two decades—a significant moment for loyal fans waiting since their 1991 release, "Trompe le Monde." It's fascinating to think about how the group, often credited with pioneering alternative rock, managed to captivate a new audience while still resonating with long-time followers. Frank Black's signature raw energy and charisma on stage shone brightly during this show, reminding everyone just how integral the Pixies were to the music scene. It’s hard to forget the thrill of their reunion and how they blended nostalgia with fresh tunes, showcasing a remarkable legacy that night at such a prestigious venue.
