Listen Later

This episode is a special treat with an old friend: A conversation with Chad Channing, the drummer who helped usher Nirvana into the world with their debut record, Bleach. We dive deep into his pivotal role on the band’s bands beginnings, and the creative spark that defined those early Sub Pop years. Channing reflects on his time in those sseminal of the Seattle scene, and what it meant to be part of a band before they became the very poster-child for the seismic cultural impact that "grunge" unleashed.


Beyond Nirvana, we talk about Chad’s decades of music since Nirvana — from pcollaborating in projects like the Fireants to evolving as a songwriter and performer in his own rite. It’s an honest, insightful look at legacy, reinvention, and the long arc of a working musician’s life — an essential epsidode for grunge historians and anyone fascinated with the deeper personalities that go well past the headlines.
