Great Moments in Vinyl plays tribute to Nirvana

March 23, 2017 • Martyrs', Chicago, IL

Nevermind paved the way for a new era of rock, the rough and ready alternative sound that journalists labeled “grunge.”  At the time, the album unseated Michael Jackson’s Dangerous at the top of the Billboard album charts, and then went on to sell 10 million copies in the U. S. and 30 million copies worldwide.  

According to Rolling Stone, it was the “album that guaranteed the ‘90s would not suck.”

Great Moments in Vinyl captures the vicious joy of two of Nirvana’s best-loved albums, Nevermind and MTV Unplugged in New York, by performing them in their entirety accompanied by stories about the songs and the musicians that created them.
