Radiohead

In February 2009, at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, Radiohead delivered a memorable performance of '15 Step' during the Grammy Awards, marking a pivotal point in their already illustrious career. This live recording came shortly after the release of their critically acclaimed album 'In Rainbows' (2007), which was groundbreaking not just for its music but also for its innovative pay-what-you-want distribution model. Interestingly, 'In Rainbows' showcased the band's desire to break the mold and redefine the music business, a theme that resonated powerfully with fans. Collaborating with the USC Trojan Marching Band during this Grammy performance added an unexpected and vibrant twist, creating a fusion of rock and traditional marching band sounds. It's a fascinating moment that captures Radiohead's experimental spirit while reinforcing their status as one of the most influential bands of the era.
