The set included tracks like "I Don't Wanna Wait," "Old Skin," and "Change," highlighting the band's signature blend of indie rock, heartland rock, and neo-psychedelia.

Formed in Philadelphia in 2005 by Granduciel and Kurt Vile, The War On Drugs has evolved over the years, with Granduciel remaining as the sole constant member. Their breakthrough album, "Lost in the Dream," released in 2014, garnered widespread acclaim and marked a period of success for the band. Subsequent albums like "A Deeper Understanding," which won the Grammy for Best Rock Album, further solidified their place in the music industry.

With a rotating lineup of talented musicians, The War On Drugs continues to captivate audiences with their captivating live performances and critically acclaimed albums.

In addition to their musical endeavors, frontman Granduciel has produced albums for other artists like Sam Fender and The Hold Steady's Craig Finn. The band's collaborations and diverse musical influences showcase their versatility and unique contributions to the indie rock scene.
