Nirvana’s classic album Nevermind will have its 20th anniversary this month, and to celebrate it we’ll be getting an exclusive screening of the never before seen Live At The Paramount show, for one night only on the 23rd of September.
Released in September 1991, Nirvana’s sophomore album and major label debut elevated Kurt Cobain, Krist Novoselic and Dave Grohl from a critically acclaimed Aberdeen, Washington cult band to generational spokesmen who’d unwittingly created a cultural shift and musical touchstone. Rising to the top of the charts Nevermind would come to be much more than one of the most successful and influential albums of its or any era.
Live At The Paramount is the only known Nirvana live show ever recorded on film and has never been seen before now. Recorded at Seattle’s Paramount Theatre, the concert was Nirvana’s first big homecoming show, at the height of the hype surrounding Nevermind.
Exactly twenty years to the day since the release of their seminal album, Live At The Paramount will have its worldwide premiere, live via satellite around Australia. Hosted by triple j’s Richard Kingsmill, the screening will be the first and only chance to experience the concert on the big screen.
