Nirvana Stages Surprise Reunion at FireAid
Surviving Nirvana members Dave Grohl and Krist Novoselic and former touring guitarist Pat Smear reunited at the California wildfires benefit concert FireAid on Thursday night. They played four Nirvana classics with the help of some guest vocalists.
In the past few weeks, people have been planning many, many benefits for the victims of the recent Los Angeles wildfires. The biggest of those shows went down last night: FireAid, a gigantic all-star spectacular that took over both the Intuit Dome and the Kia Forum.
A rotating group of women vocalists joined the surviving members of the legendary '90s band for a raucous reunion set.
The surviving members of Nirvana reunited for a surprise performance at the FireAid benefit concert in Los Angeles, California last night (January 30th), with the grunge icons having hit the stage to play a few classic songs alongside guest musicians St. Vincent, Kim Gordon, Joan Jett, and Violet Grohl.
The surviving members of Nirvana — drummer Dave Grohl and bassist Krist Novoselic, as well as touring guitarist Pat Smear — reunited for the first time in five years at the FireAid benefit concert.
FireAid had some surprises in store, but none bigger than the first reunion from Nirvana's surviving members in over a decade.
FireAid, a sprawling benefit concert for wildfire relief, featured Joni Mitchell, Stevie Wonder, Billie Eilish, Lady Gaga, members of Nirvana and dozens more.
The band also brought out Dave Grohl's 18-year-old daughter, Violet Grohl, to wrap up the set with an emotional rendition of "All Apologies"
