Pixies headline the Eden Sessions, with more big names to come

Pixies have a habit of turning any room into a singalong. Last night they did it beneath the Biomes at the Eden Project, in front of a full-capacity crowd.

The band delivered a landmark headline set as part of this year’s Eden Sessions, billed by the venue as one of the biggest names to grace the Eden stage.

A landmark night beneath the Biomes

The crowd responded in force. Waves of cheers and sing-along moments ran through the set as Pixies worked through the era-defining tracks that helped shape alternative rock, and the enduring pull of that catalogue was clear from start to finish.

Pixies were joined on the night by special guests Gans.
