Hamburg, December 5th, 2024

Iggy Pop “Live at Montreux Jazz Festival 2023” is an essential Iggy Pop live album, celebrating a career, a catalog and a performer that only gather more raw power throughout the years.

On July 6th, 2023 Iggy Pop returned to the Montreux Jazz Festival backed by a seven- piece band and thrilled a capacity Stravinski Auditorium crowd with a career- spanning set including tracks from his time with The Stooges, his Idiot and Lust for Life albums, New Values leading up to his recent release Every Loser.

It marked Iggy’s third appearance at the festival and his monumental performance was recorded and filmed by the Montreux Jazz Festival team. The concert will be available as a Blu-ray+CD Digipak, 2 LP Gatefold, and digital download on January 24th, 2025 worldwide via earMUSIC.

Hear “The Passenger (Live at Montreux Jazz Festival 2023)”, the new single HERE.

“Stravinsky Hall is special, like Carnegie or the Garden or Sydney Opera. I’ve dived I them all.” – Iggy Pop

There has never been an artist on stage quite like Iggy Pop and here he has never been better. With a band as versatile and acrobatic as the artist himself, there is everything from the glorious primitivism of Stooges-era “I Wanna Be Your Dog” and “T.V. Eye”, the swagger of “Lust for Life,” the precise metronomic drone of “Nightclubbing, “and the full-on unleashed rock fury of the recent “Modern Day Ripoff” and “Frenzy”.

This most comprehensive live collection catches up with Iggy as he continues to win over generations of new fans and perform at the highest level his lifelong devotees have come to expect.
