23 years ago on April 8th, we lost the hero and spokesperson of a generation. The one and only Kurt Cobain. So to celebrate his life and achievements, we are throwing a party in his honour at the coolest new venue in Manchester – Jimmy’s. Come as you are.
Kurt Cobain challenged the status quo of the music world, showed kids everywhere that rock musicians shouldn’t be judged by their lycra trousers and how neat their hair was as well as played from the heart with every track. This is why he is an icon, not only of the 90’s but one to be revered in any decade.
Zero Club is more a labour of love and passion project than another club night to us at Red Cardinal Music, as it gives us all a chance to relive what was a very important era of music and pop culture all over again at our events, and we wouldn’t have all of this without Nirvana. They weren’t the first Grunge band, nor were they the most original – but the honesty and visceral melodies from Bleach all the way to In Utero still stand the test of time and have found their rightful place in the upper echelons of music history.
Between 12-1 we will play nothing but Nirvana for the big fans and obsessives, with other tracks and connected artists sprinkled throughout the night.
You will also hear the usual ZC anthems, so expect the following :
GRUNGE // GEEK ROCK // 90’S GENERATION X ANTHEMS
Nirvana // The Pixies // Pearl Jam // Weezer // Nada Surf // The Melvins // Smashing Pumpkins // Hole // Presidents Of The USA // Stone Temple Pilots // No Doubt // Beck // Soundgarden // Quicksand // Red Hot Chili Peppers // Jane’s Addiction // Eels // Foo Fighters // Faith No More // L7 // Garbage // Alice In Chains // Alanis Morissette // Bush // Mudhoney // The Offspring // Pavement // Butthole Surfers // Sonic Youth // The Breeders // Sublime // Temple Of The Dog // Everclear // Counting Crows // Silverchair // Dinosaur Jr // Radiohead // REM // Tad // Rage Against The Machine + much, much more.
See you at Jimmy’s.
