You could split the output of Pixies into two eras. There's their early work — the seminal albums they put out in the years after forming in Boston in 1986, like Surfer Rosa, Doolittle and Trompe le Monde , that changed indie rock and influenced countless other bands. But in the last decade, the band has been just as prolific as it was in the beginning, with five full-length albums since 2014, including their brand new one coming out tomorrow, called The Night the Zombies Came .

Today, you'll hear a live mini-concert recorded exclusively for World Cafe featuring the current Pixies lineup: singer Charles Thompson, aka Black Francis; drummer David Lovering; guitarist Joey Santiago; and new bassist Emma Richardson. Enjoy! This episode of World Cafe was produced and edited by Kimberly Junod. The web story was created by Miguel Perez.
