Read full details
The Breeders, the American alternative rock band fronted by Kim Deal, perform in San Francisco with Imperial Teen. Deal, also a member of Pixies, started the Breeders in 1988, and the band's 1990 debut album Pod, engineered by Steve Albini at Edinburgh's Palladium studio, became a critical favorite. Its raw, spontaneous sound drew praise and counted Nirvana's Kurt Cobain among its admirers.
This show pairs the Breeders with Imperial Teen, offering an evening of alt-rock and indie pop. For listeners drawn to the guitar-driven edge of early '90s rock, it's a chance to hear a band whose debut record helped define an era.
