See Soundgarden’s Surviving Members Reunite at Seattle Benefit Concert
The surviving members of Soundgarden reunited onstage Saturday to perform a set of the band’s music at a Seattle benefit concert.
The surviving members of Soundgarden — drummer Matt Cameron, guitarist Kim Thayil, and bassist Ben Shepherd — reunited onstage Saturday to perform a set of the band’s music at a Seattle benefit concert. The six-song setlist featured cuts from Soundgarden’s early catalog — Ultramega OK ’s “Flower” and “Beyond the Wheel,” Screaming Life’ s “Hunted Down” — plus Badmotorfinger ’s “Outshined” and Superunknown ’s “Kickstand,” with Guns N’ Roses bassist and fellow Seattleite Duff McKagan joining in to sing the latter. Cameron, Thayil, and Ben Shepherd last performed together live when Brandi Carlile brought them out at her Gorge Amphitheater concert in 2021, soon after she re-recorded a pair of Soundgarden classics — “Black Hole Sun” and “Searching With My Good Eye Closed” — in the studio with the band for a Record Store Day single.
