In August 2003, PJ Harvey performed 'Dress' live at Slane Castle, a captivating highlight during her tour for the album 'Stories from the City, Stories from the Sea.' This album, released in late 2000, marked a significant point in her career, showcasing her shift toward a more melodically accessible sound, while still retaining her signature lyrical depth. At this time, Harvey was gaining widespread critical acclaim, blending alternative rock with poetic storytelling. Interestingly, 'Stories from the City' won the Mercury Prize and solidified her place as a powerful voice in UK music. The live performance at Slane captures her raw energy and the connection she has with her audience, making it a memorable event in her artistic journey.
