PIXIES Live at Positivus Festival Performing Isla de Encanta
In July 2017, when the Pixies took the stage at the Positivus Festival in Latvia, they were riding a wave of renewed popularity following their 2016 album *Head Carrier*. This record marked their first since reuniting in 2004 after a long hiatus, and it received positive feedback for its blend of old-school Pixies energy and fresh nuances. Fans were eager for a live experience that captured this new chapter, and "Isla de Encanta" was a standout track during their performance, embodying their signature blend of melodic punk and surreal themes. Interestingly, *Head Carrier* introduced bassist Paz Lenchantin into the mix, who added her unique flair to the band's sound. This live recording not only showcased Pixies' enduring relevance but also highlighted their ability to capture the raw energy and vibrancy that their concerts are known for, reminding audiences why they’re regarded as pioneers of the alternative rock scene.
