Before Seattle gave us Nirvana, Pearl Jam and Soundgarden, there was Mudhoney. Their sound was new – embracing punk rock and heavy metal and infusing it with emotive, relatable lyrics. Their impact was undeniable, as they kicked started a genre and cultural movement that artistically influenced and emotionally supported a generation, including some of the biggest names in music today.
“When it comes to grunge or even just Seattle, I think there was one band that made the definitive music of the time. It wasn’t us or Nirvana, but Mudhoney. Nirvana delivered it to the world, but Mudhoney were the band of that time and sound.” Eddie Vedder, Pearl Jam.
Mudhoney, supported by Cali trio, Primitive Ring will be playing intimate shows in a number of club venues across Australia and New Zealand. This is a great opportunity to experience this raw and unapologetic music in the setting it was intended for.
