Screaming Trees Live Performance of 'Dollar Bill' on Late Show

Screaming Trees performed "Dollar Bill" during the period surrounding the release of their fourth studio album, "Sweet Oblivion," which came out in September 1992. This album marked a significant moment in their career, showcasing their breakout into mainstream success, largely thanks to the popularity of singles like "Nearly Lost You." The live performance featured in the video was part of a promotional appearance on "The Late Show" during the height of the grunge era, where the band was gaining traction alongside contemporaries like Nirvana. Interestingly, "Dollar Bill" was a deeper cut from the album, reflecting the band’s signature blend of psychedelic rock and grunge, and illustrated their unique sound at a time when they were often overshadowed by other giants of the Seattle music scene. This performance highlighted the band’s energy and ability to connect with audiences, contributing to their legacy in the alternative rock genre.
