The Breeders

In March 1989, The Breeders, performing under the name Boston Girl Super-Group, brought their electrifying sound to The Rathskeller, a hotspot in Boston. At this time, the band had just released their debut album 'Pod' in 1990, which was well-received for its raw energy and unique blend of punk and alternative rock. Interestingly, the lineup featured Kim Deal, famously of the Pixies, and her twin sister Kelley, which added an intriguing family dynamic to their music. This live recording captures the essence of their early days, emphasizing the band's connection to the vibrant local scene amidst the burgeoning alternative music wave. It's a reminder of how they were carving out their identity just before gaining broader recognition, making this performance a pivotal moment in their career.
