Alexisonfire have announced a new live album.
Titled 'LIVE Born & Raised 2022, St Catharines ON', the compilation comprises 17 tracks spanning the Canadian post-hardcore band's back catalogue, recorded during their two shows at the band's hometown, inaugural Born & Raised Festival in summer 2022.
Ahead of its digital release on June 27 and physical release on July 8, Alexisonfire have shared a preview in the form of a live take on Little Girls Pointing And Laughing taken from the record. Notably, the song is the first Alexisonfire wrote as a band over 22 years ago down the street from Montebello Park, where the festival took place. Vocalist George Petit said:
"St. Catharines was a perfect breeding ground for young independent bands. There was no shortage of venues where you could play or promote a show. So in the early 2000s, Alexisonfire learned a lot of what we needed to know coming up in St. Catharines. Coming back and playing a massive festival in Montebello Park was not only fun but served as an opportunity to give something back to the city that taught us how to be a band."
Born & Raised Festival will return to Montebello Park, St Catharines on July 5 and 6. Head here for details.
