Nirvana, Joan Jett and Kim Gordon
An absolute highlight of FireAid was the comet-like reappearance of the remaining members of Nirvana onstage together playing the band's songs again.
A trio of singers filled in for Kurt Cobain as Dave Grohl, Pat Smear and Krist Novoselic performed "Breed," "School" and "Territorial Pissings.”
A rotating group of women vocalists joined the surviving members of the legendary '90s band for a raucous reunion set.
FireAid, a sprawling benefit concert for wildfire relief, featured Joni Mitchell, Stevie Wonder, Billie Eilish, Lady Gaga, members of Nirvana and dozens more.
The surviving members of Nirvana reunited for a surprise performance at the FireAid benefit concert in Los Angeles, California last night (January 30th), with the grunge icons having hit the stage to play a few classic songs alongside guest musicians St. Vincent, Kim Gordon, Joan Jett, and Violet Grohl.
Dave Grohl, Krist Novoselic and Pat Smear reunited and were helped by variety of guest vocalists for a Nirvana performance at the FireAid benefit concert.
According to Kim Gordon, women are "natural anarchists" because they are hard-wired to fight from the off, which filters into many musicians' art.
The band also brought out Dave Grohl's 18-year-old daughter, Violet Grohl, to wrap up the set with an emotional rendition of "All Apologies"
St. Vincent, Joan Jett and Kim Gordon joined Pat Smear and original Nirvana members Dave Grohl and Krist Novoselic onstage for a reunion of sorts at FireAid Thursday. Violet, Jett, and Gordon each subbed in for the late Kurt Cobain.
Surviving Nirvana members Dave Grohl and Krist Novoselic and former touring guitarist Pat Smear reunited at the California wildfires benefit concert FireAid on Thursday night. They played four Nirvana classics with the help of some guest vocalists.
But for Violet Grohl taking the place of Lorde, it was the same group of singer/guitarists the remaining Nirvana trio played with at their Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction performance in 2014
