The Breeders Live at MTV Studios: Performances of 'Divine Hammer', 'No Aloha', 'Cannonball', 'Flipside', and 'Iris'

Venue: MTV Studios Location: London, UK Date: October 9, 1993

In October 1993, when The Breeders performed live at MTV Studios in London, they were riding the wave of success from their second album, "Last Splash," which had been released just a few months earlier in August. This album marked a significant point in their career as it included the breakout single "Cannonball," which became synonymous with the band's sound and helped propel them into mainstream recognition. The live performance at MTV, part of the show "120 Minutes," showcased their energetic presence and solidified their reputation within the alternative rock scene. Notably, the timing of this performance coincided with a peak in their popularity, as "Last Splash" was critically acclaimed and embraced by fans, leading to an influential moment for both the band and the broader industry, highlighting the rise of female-led rock groups in the early '90s.
