The Presidents of the United States of America

In February 1996, The Presidents of the United States of America graced the stage at Mount Rushmore for the MTV special "Carved in Rock" where they performed their playful tune "Kitty." This live recording came just after the release of their second self-titled album in 1995, which further solidified their place in the alternative rock scene. Interesting to note, this performance at such an iconic venue underscored their rise in popularity amidst the grunge boom of the '90s. Their quirky sound, characterized by catchy hooks and witty lyrics, caught the attention of both fans and critics, and this MTV special helped showcase their energetic live presence. The Presidents’ ability to blend humor and rock left a lasting impression, and this performance is a delightful snapshot of their vibrant career during that time.
