Pixies

Ah, Pixies! They were riding a pretty exciting wave around December 2019, especially with the release of their album "Beneath the Eyrie" just a few months prior in September. This record marked their return after a bit of a hiatus, showcasing an evolution in their sound while still holding onto that signature blend of surreal lyrics and dynamic melodies that fans know and love. When you watch "Catfish Kate" from their live performance at the Phoenix Concert Theatre, it's a real treat, capturing the band in their element—energetic and engaging with their audience. There’s something special about live recordings; they capture those raw, spontaneous moments that studio albums can sometimes miss. Interestingly, "Beneath the Eyrie" features themes inspired by their time in a creepy former church where they recorded, a detail that adds an intriguing layer to the band's creative process. It's no wonder they were so electrifying on stage that night in Toronto!
