On stage at the Bilbao BBK Live Festival, Arcade Fire live up to their reputation as beasts of the stage. The Canadians take us on a journey of pure energy and poetry. It was in Montreal, in the early 2000s, that the multi-instrumentalist duo of Win Butler and Régine Chassagne gave birth to Arcade Fire. The result is one of the most fascinating pop bands of the last twenty years. The individual members of Arcade Fire are true virtuosos, able to switch from one instrument to another at the snap of a finger. At their explosively staged concerts, for example, it's not uncommon to see William Butler leap from keyboard to bass, while Richard Parry switches from toms to tambourine and Tim Kingsbury - the band's bassist and guitarist - improvises as a keyboardist... All this gives Arcade Fire's performances the air of an unbridled party, all set to an extravagant rock-baroque orchestration. This inventiveness and strong artistic bias (both live and in the studio) have been Arcade Fire's hallmarks since the very beginning. Many critics have hailed the band as "the best live band in the world". The great David Bowie even called the band members "geniuses". In 2018, at the Accor Arena, Arcade Fire delivered one of the finest performances ever filmed by our cameras. True to their reputation as a live beast, the Canadian band once again delivered a high-flying concert to the Bilbao BBK Live Festival audience.
