Event Details

Led by alt-rock legend Kim Deal, influential indie-rockers The Breeders make their Concert Hall debut featuring the band's definitive line up of Kim's twin sister and lead guitarist Kelley, bassist Josephine Wiggs and drummer Jim MacPherson.

Sounding just as vital now as they did on the release of their seminal second album, Last Splash, the coolest indie-band in the world finally unleash their twisted-pop genius on the Concert Hall stage performing songs from their critically acclaimed fifth full-length triumph All Nerve, along with past hits.

Originally formed by Kim Deal as a singing/song writing outlet in between playing bass for nineties indie-icons Pixies, The Breeders initially released two acclaimed albums including 1993's platinum-selling Last Splash featuring the instantly recognisable track 'Cannonball'. The breakthrough album confirmed Deal as a bewitching and effortless melodious songwriter. Two more albums followed spaced well apart and after briefly going solo, Deal re-formed The Breeders in 2013.

On the 25th anniversary of Last Splash, the group re-formed, wrote and recorded new material in analogue form for their exceptional latest release, All Nerve.

With their delicate female vocal harmonies wrapped around scuzzy guitar, shifting from melodic sweetness to raw power, the utterly distinctive Breeders will leave you wanting more this November.
