Read full details
The Breeders bring their twin-guitar alt-rock to San Francisco, with Imperial Teen on the bill. The Dayton, Ohio band built its following on Last Splash and the hit 'Cannonball,' and the Deal sisters have continued to record with albums like All Nerve.
Expect a set driven by Kim and Kelley Deal's interlocking guitars, Josephine Wiggs on bass and Jim Macpherson on drums — the classic lineup that reunited around the band's celebrated catalogue. Imperial Teen rounds out the bill with its own brand of indie pop.
