Iggy Pop has announced a new concert album, Live at Montreux Festival 2023. Ahead of its January 24th release, the punk icon has unveiled his performance of the song “Five Foot One.”
Live at Montreux Festival 2023 was filmed and recorded during Iggy’s July 6th, 2023, set at the Montreux Jazz Festival, where the punk godfather performed to a packed house at the Stravinski Auditorium.
The career-spanning 18-song setlist features Stooges classics like “T.V. Eye,” “Raw Power,” and “I Wanna Be Your Dog,” alongside solo favorites such as “The Passenger,” “Lust for Life,” and “Nightclubbing.” The concert closes with “Frenzy” from Iggy’s most recent solo album, 2023’s “Every Loser.”
Live at Montreux Festival 2023 will be released as a Blu-ray+CD Digipak, a 2-LP Gatefold, and a digital download via earMUSIC, with pre-orders available via Amazon.
“I give something extra every time I do Montreux Jazz,” stated Iggy of the performance. “In ’23 it was deep cuts like ‘Mass Production,’ ‘Endless Sea,’ ‘Five Foot One’ and a hell of a lot of sweat.”
At 77 years old, Iggy Pop is still going strong. He closes out 2024 with a gig at the Corona Capital festival in Mexico City on November 17th, and already has a few dates lined up for 2025, including a March 24th show in Chicago (pick up tickets here).
