Kirkwood, Curt
Snow
The Meat Puppets may very well be the "best-known underground band" of all time - which, of course, is a complete contradiction in terms. While arguably not a household name, they are often referred to as one of the most influential groups of the last two decades. And as the main force behind this acclaimed alternative rock band, Curt Kirkwood has been cited as a major musical inspiration by the likes of Kurt Cobain, Soul Asylum, and Pearl Jam. With the release of SNOW, Kirkwood steps out of a band context and makes his solo debut, putting his talent as a gifted singer/songwriter front and center in a more intimate setting. Heres a modern day troubadour, writing and singing songs that reflect the world around him, filtered through his own idiosyncratic life vision . the "psychedelic" Woody Guthrie of his generation.
