The Strokes’ Bassist Nikolai Fraiture gives an inside look at how the band approaches live performances, even when things don’t go perfectly. From early days of being hard on themselves to learning to embrace imperfection, Nikolai explains why small mistakes on stage don’t matter to the audience—and how the band focuses on delivering energy, connection, and a memorable show.
He also shares why live music isn’t about flawless execution, but about creating moments fans will remember, and how The Strokes have learned to turn mishaps into part of the performance.
