MGMT

In June 2010, during the Glastonbury Festival, MGMT performed their iconic track "Time to Pretend," showcasing a pivotal moment in their career. This performance occurred shortly after the release of their second studio album, "Congratulations," which came out in April 2010. "Congratulations" marked a shift in their sound, moving away from the more mainstream pop appeal of their debut album, "Oracular Spectacular," and incorporating experimental elements. Notably, the Glastonbury performance reflects their evolving artistic direction, as they began to embrace a more psychedelic and self-aware approach to their music. This period also highlighted MGMT’s growing reputation as a festival favorite, solidifying their place in the indie music landscape and establishing a strong connection with their audience during live performances.
