Krist Novoselic's new band The Bona Fide Band

Last week saw the live debut of Krist Novoselic's new band The Bona Fide Band in Aberdeen, WA, the birthplace of Krist and Kurt Cobain's band Nirvana.

To back up for a minute, Krist is running for President of his new political party the Cascade Party (another story altogether, but he's trying to get a legit third party going and he's running for president in order to do so...even though he doesn't want to be president). The party needs to get the word out as being a bona fide party, so to do so, he formed a band to play around WA state, The Bona Fide Band featuring Krist on bass and accordion. Also featured in the band is drummer Mark Pickerel (Screaming Trees and some of the recordings he did with Cobain and Screaming Trees' Mark Lanegan appeared on Nirvana's With the Lights Out box set), Seattle guitarist Kathy Moore, and vocalists Jillian Raye and Jennifer Johnson (both of whom performed with Krist in Giants In The Trees and the supergroup 3rd Secret).

The Bona Fide Band

At this particular show, they performed mostly Giants In The Trees and 3rd Secret songs, but they also did a covers of David Bowie's "The Man Who Sold the World" (which Nirvana covered on MTV Unplugged) and Shocking Blue's "Love Buzz", which Nirvana covered on their debut album Bleach. The song was dedicated to Cobain's sister Kimberly, who was in the audience. I hope the band releases a new track or two on Bandcamp.

The video above is the performance of "Love Buzz" on June 21, 2024 in Aberdeen, WA.

Krist Anthony Novoselic (born May 16, 1965) is best known as the lanky bassist and founding member of Nirvana alongside Kurt Cobian and Dave Grohl; the band had massive success earning platinum awards and touring around the world to sold-out shows. After the band disbanded in 1994 following the death of Kurt Cobian, he formed DSweet 75 and Eyes Adrift. Both bands released one album. For three years, he played with the band Flipper. He played bass and accordion on the Foo Fighter’s album Wasting Light, once again working with former bandmate Dave Grohl. Novoselic has been politically active and created JAMPAC(Joint Artists and Musicians Political Action Committee); he wrote the column for the Seattle Weekly Website. Since 2008 he has been chairing the electoral reform organization Fair Vote. He will often reminisce about his good time with Kurt Cobain and Nirvana. I’ve heard him talk about politics and music and he is passionate about both Novoselic was a key player in one of modern music’s most influential bands and has time to jam with some friends.
