The GRAMMY Museum was thrilled to welcome Sleater-Kinney to the Museum’s intimate 200-seat Clive Davis Theater for an evening discussing their latest music, career, and creative process, with a performance to follow.
Now three decades into their partnership and no less ferocious and inventive than day one, Carrie Brownstein and Corin Tucker’s alchemical connection has made Sleater-Kinney one of the most impactful and vital rock acts of the past 30 years. 2024's triumphant Little Rope perfectly rang in Sleater-Kinney’s 30th anniversary—their signature crunch and roar daubed in a post-punk glow, a culmination of their profound and influential canon, and one of the most honest and soul-bearing albums of their career. In the fall of 2022 Carrie Brownstein received a call from Corin Tucker, who herself had just received a call from the American embassy. While vacationing in Italy, Carrie's mother and stepfather had been in a car accident. Both were killed. As Carrie and Corin moved through the early aftermath of the tragedy, elements of what was to become the emotional backbone of Little Rope began to form – how we navigate grief, who we navigate it with, and the ways in which it transforms us. But while this tragedy was personal, the songs create parallels to a wider collective grief felt via attacks on women's reproductive rights, the anti-LGBTQ movement and global unrest. Three decades in, Sleater-Kinney has proven their vitality, relevance and importance in music and culture more than ever.
