a tribute to grunge and the heavy alt-90's
X-Nation is a tribute to the music of the 90's that didn't suck. Sure, we're playing plenty of the stuff that came out of Seattle, but good music came from everywhere during that decade - including our hometown of L.A.
The name X-Nation is a bow to our brothers and sisters born after 1965, Generation X, who came of age in the 80's and 90's. Tired and disillusioned by the excesses of the 80's, this music represents both our youth and our transition from innocence to the real world. Join us as we cover the better music of the 90's. There won't be any Backstreet Boys or Spice Girls. You'll hear Soundgarden, Alice in Chains, Tool, Foo Fighters, Jane's Addiction, Screaming Trees, Dinosaur Jr., RHCP, Pearl Jam, STP and even Metallica. Over time, expect us to dive into the more obscure when we can get away with it.
X-Nation is lead vocalist, Jaime Miranda, who manages to capture the voices of Layne Staley, Chris Cornell, James Hetfield, Eddie Vedder, Curt Cobain, Zack de la Rocha, and countless others. Nate Myer brings vocal harmony to X-Nation along with his guitar work, and he's been known to belt out the lead vocals for a number of heavy 90's hits. X-Nation is rounded out by Rich Abronson on lead guitar, Jeff Page on drums, and Phil Romo on bass.
The band is available for parties, events and venues throughout Southern California and will travel. For bookings, please email xnation90@gmail.com
