The Breeders join host Raina Douris

Three decades ago, The Breeders released an alt-rock classic. Their second album Last Splash, which included their hit song “Cannonball”, made a huge impact and eventually went platinum. All four members of the Breeders reflect on what it was like when Last Splash blew up, talk about revisiting the album for the release of the new, 30th anniversary re-mastered version, and discuss their legacy thirty years on.

Listen to the session here.
