The Breeders Celebrate the 20th Anniversary of Last Splash with a Re-Issue and Tour

After the Pixies broke up in 1993, bassist Kim Deal focused her attentions on her side project with twin sister Kelley, The Breeders. Producing NME’s Single of the Year, the Last Splash single,“Cannonball”, propelled The Breeders to international acclaim in August of 1993. Hailed by critics as “effervescent”, “blistering”, even “incoherent”, Last Splash went platinum by June 1994 and by September, the band took an indefinite hiatus. To celebrate the album’s anniversary in 2013, The Breeders will perform Last Splash in it’s entirety with the record’s original lineup for an August US tour.
