Pixies

In July 2016, when the Pixies performed "Rock Music" live at the Théâtre Antique de Fourvière in Lyon, they were riding a wave of renewed momentum post-reunion. Just two years prior, they released *Indie Cindy*, their first album in over two decades, which marked their long-awaited return to the studio. By the time of this live recording, they had also released *Head Carrier* in 2016, showcasing their evolving sound while staying true to the raw, energetic aesthetic that originally drew fans to their music. This era was particularly interesting as it highlighted the band’s ability to adapt and grow while still capturing the essence of their defining sound. Their performance in Lyon is a testament to their enduring influence in the alternative rock scene, proving that even decades later, their music resonates deeply with both longtime fans and new listeners alike. Isn’t it fascinating how the past can weave into the present in live music?
