Pitchfork Festival: Tortoise
A nostalgic post-rock night.
Widely regarded as one of the most influential music groups of the last 40 years, Tortoise has left a significant mark on the contemporary music scene. Initially recognized as pioneers of the post-rock movement, the Chicago-based band creates genre-defying music that remains both challenging and timeless. Since 1990, the group has released seven albums, including the acclaimed Millions Now Living Will Never Die and TNT, evolving their sound through an intuitive blend of electronics, jazz, and rock. While their studio recordings experiment with advanced editing techniques, the band is celebrated as a live marvel that thrives on real-time performance. Their shows reveal a supremely fun side to their artistry, keeping the project wide open to sonic exploration.
