\n\tWhen Poolside stepped onto the Ocean Stage at San Diego\u2019s waterfront CRSSD festival on March 2, it was unlike any show the longstanding SoCal outfit had ever played.<\/p>\n

\t\t\t\t\tThe L.A. Fires Took Everything. For Some, \u2018The Music Community Is Backing Me\u00a0Up\u2019\t\t<\/p>\n<\/h3><\/div>\n

\n\tThe performance marked Poolside\u2019s first since frontman and co-founder Jeffrey Paradise lost his Altadena home and all of his possessions in the Los Angeles wildfires two months prior. <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cOn one hand, it felt odd using rental equipment,\u201d Paradise tells Billboard<\/em>. \u201cA reminder of what I lost. But on the other, I realized how supported we are from it. [My friend] Robb donated his studio space at K St. Creative so we could rehearse, Fender donated some instruments so we could play, Roland donated gear, so many of you donated directly to help get us back on our feet.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tWith this equipment, the group whipped up a funky, jazzy and often happily psychedelic late afternoon performance on the dance festival\u2019s biggest stage. The performance included their 2020 Panama collaboration \u201cCan\u2019t Stop Your Lovin’\u201d and their essential 2012 cover of Neil Young<\/a>\u2018s \u201cHarvest Moon,\u201d complete with an extended sax solo. Hear the complete show exclusively below. <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cSan Diego, my hometown \u2014 nothing feels better than coming back to where it all began and after losing my home and studio in the L.A. fires,\u201d Paradise continues. \u201cStepping onto that stage for my first show since meant everything. And to do it [in San Diego], with my band, in America\u2019s finest city, on the waterfront, was the kind of healing I needed.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThese celebratory vibes were a long way from those of early January, when Paradise wrote<\/a> on Instagram that \u201cEvery piece of gear. Every guitar. Every flier I saved. Every record I dug for years and years. It\u2019s all gone in an instant.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cSome days have been really tough,\u201d Paradise continues of the March set, \u201cbut [CRSSD] wasn\u2019t one of the tough ones. I am grateful beyond words for the love, the music and the incredible people who make this journey so special.\u201d<\/p>\n
