Storied: The Grunge Era

Join host Benji Rosenzweig as he guides the audience through this alternative rock genre and subculture that emerged in the U.S. during the mid-1980s and thrived through the mid-90s. Benji will discuss how Grunge fuses punk rock and heavy metal elements while incorporating influences from indie rock bands. He will delve into the angst-filled and introspective lyrics, often addressing themes of societal hardship, from bands such as Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Jane's Addiction, and Soundgarden, as well as artists of the era like Alanis Morissette, Hole, and Lenny Kravitz, who helped define Grunge.
