Pixies

In 2016, when Pixies played their live recording of "Hey" at the Théâtre Antique de Fourvière in Lyon, they were riding high on the momentum of their fourth studio album, "Head Carrier." Released just the previous year, this album marked a notable return for the band, showcasing their enduring relevance and creative evolution since their 1980s heyday. "Head Carrier" had been well-received, injecting fresh energy into their iconic sound while still retaining the blend of angst and melody that fans cherish. Interestingly, the show in Lyon took place during a European tour that highlighted the band's stellar live performance chops—Pixies are renowned for their raw, electrifying shows, which meld their compelling sound with a palpable connection to the audience. That night in the ancient theatre of Lyon was not just another gig; it was a celebration of their legacy, bridging the past with present-day prowess.
