Brandi Carlile was joined onstage by three Soundgarden members during her show at The Gorge Amphitheatre in George, WA this past Saturday, August 14th. Joining her onstage from the aforementioned grunge legends were the band’s guitarist Kim Thayil, bassist/vocalist Ben Shepherd and drummer/vocalist Matt Cameron. Together they performed covers of Soundgarden‘s “Black Hole Sun” and “Searching With My Good Eye Closed“.
Carlile and members of her backing band previously covered those very songs together with the aforementioned trio for her “A Rooster Says” Record Store Day release. Carlile also previously performed “Black Hole Sun” live with Soundgarden during their January 2019 tribute concert to the band’s late frontman Chris Cornell.
