Recorded on 17 November 2024, the concert marked the final date of the band’s extensive European tour, delivering a career-spanning set that included classics such as The Weeping Song and Red Right Hand, alongside tracks from their latest critically acclaimed 18th studio album, Wild God, which was released on 30 August last year.
