A LITTLE HELP
FROM HER FRIENDS
Often a young musician is shaped by a singular
performance that clicks a switch inside her, a switch that
says: “I could do that, too.”
For Corin Tucker of Sleater-Kinney, that moment came
at the WOW Hall.
“When I was in high school, it was Fugazi and Mecca
Normal and Beat Happening,” says Tucker, who grew up in
Eugene and now lives in Portland. “That show pretty much
changed my life. Seeing those kinds of shows live can bring
you into the realm of, ‘I really want to do that.’”

Tucker returns to Eugene behind her latest project,
Filthy Friends, a supergroup featuring Peter Buck of R.E.M.,
Scott McCaughey of Young Fresh Fellows and The Minus
5, the Fastback’s legendary guitarist Kurt Bloch, as well
as drummer Linda Pitmon of The Baseball Project and The
Minus 5.
The band’s debut album, Invitation, is out Aug. 25 on
Kill Rock Stars, and the record is a mix of rock styles from
classic to punk.
“It’s a really eclectic,” Tucker says. “A Television
influence. A T. Rex thing.”
Tucker wrote all the words and vocal melodies, while
Buck provided the music. And Tucker says her words are

inspired, in part, by America’s “troubled political times.”
Album-track “Any Kind of Crowd” is so R.E.M. it’d fit nicely on
the Athens’ band’s classic Life’s Rich Pageant, only with Patti
Smith on vocals.
“It’s a different style,” Tucker says, contrasting Filthy
Friends with her better-known work with Sleater-Kinney and
Carrie Brownstein. “This is the songwriter from R.E.M.,” she
adds. “You could say R.E.M. helped invent indie rock. Getting
to work with him is something I really enjoy. There’s a lot of
room for experimentation.”
Filthy Friends play alongside terrific Seattle indie
rockers Wimps 10 pm Friday, Aug. 25, at Hi-Fi Music Hall
Lounge; $15, 21-plus. — Will Kennedy
