VERY cool for us (Bam Bam) to be so honored in Vice Magazine's Newsbreak piece: '4 Grunge Deep Cuts That Deserve More Love Today'. By Jake Uitti❤ June 27, 2025.

4 Grunge Deep Cuts That Deserve More Love Today - NewsBreak When grunge music rose to prominence in the late 1980s and early 1990s, it was like a meteor struck the musical landscape. Nothing was quite the same. Sudd

Cool repost of an interview I did a while back with Croatian writer/artist Hrvoje Bubic on Solin Live:
Chit-Chat: Scott Ledgerwood.

Music LP-Underground, May 5, 2025.

MLP-U - chit-chat: Scott Ledgerwood Za početak, recite nam o svojim početcima, utjecajima i glazbenoj sceni u Seattleu tijekom 80-ih. Čujem da je tada bila na snazi zabrana koncerata? Upoznao sam tipa po imenu Chris kad sam imao 12 godina. Znao je dva akorda, ja sam znao tri – odjednom smo obojica znali pet! Moji glazbeni utjecaj...

Missing my brilliant musical brother Tommy Martin..

I'm honored to read about us (Bam Bam & Tina Bell) in "G. Storia ed estetica grunge", by Matteo Ceschi. 🔥❤

{“G. Storia ed estetica grunge” is a book about the birth and parable of the Seattle and Northwest music scene. Unpublished testimonies – starting from that of Scott Ledgerwood, bassist of Bam Bam – help to revive the memory of human and artistic relationships in Seattle during the Eighties and early Nineties.
Matteo Ceschi, essayist and photographer, particularly focuses on the significant role played by photographers, directors, cartoonists, independent publishers and journalists, and the fashion system as well, in making grunge pop(ular) and mainstream. He is also interested in the bands’ civic engagement, the political and social issues on which they took a stance.
Alongside the usual and more well-known grunge characters (Chris Cornell, Kurt Cobain, Mark Arm, Eddie Vedder, etc.) you will also find two important female figures: Tina Bell, singer of Bam Bam and the "Godmother of Grunge", and Susan Silver, the manager of Soundgarden and Alice in Chains.
“G. Storia ed estetica grunge” is a rough, impressionistic tableau, a grunge portrait of a musical and cultural era.
An essential discography of grunge (ten songs) is included in the appendix of the book}.
