The Chrome Showroom hosts this national touring tribute to Nirvana, featuring the Chicago-based band Smells Like Nirvana. Led by Paul Wandtke (formerly of Trivium and Dead Original), along with drummer Sean McCole and bassist Mike Petrasek of Bedlem, the group delivers raw, authentic performances of grunge classics without relying on click tracks or backing tracks—staying true to the spirit of how Nirvana approached their own live shows.

The setlist spans the full range of Nirvana's catalog, from the raw intensity of Bleach to the anthems of Nevermind and the darker territory of In Utero. They also dig into the stripped-down versions from MTV Unplugged and pull out rare B-sides that devoted fans will appreciate. These are seasoned musicians who clearly have deep respect for Kurt Cobain's legacy, channeling the angst and energy that made Nirvana such a defining force in 90s rock. The all-ages show (with 21+ areas available) takes place in the intimate setting of the Chrome Showroom at Santa Fe Station.
