Live from the Artists Den S07 E01 Phoenix

It was a school night to remember when international superstars Phoenix performed a spectacular show in the gym at L.C. Anderson High School in Austin, Texas. Following a main-stage set at the Austin City Limits Festival the day before, the French band played for 800 invited guests – including several hundred students – for an episode of the public television series Live from the Artists Den. They blasted through 16 songs, including such hits as “Lisztomania” and “If I Ever Feel Better” and selections from their most recent album, Bankrupt!, before singer Thomas Mars invited the audience to join them on stage at the home of the Trojans for thrilling, chaotic renditions of “1901” and “Rome.”
