From a press release:

Nirvanish, a Los Angeles-based tribute to Nirvana that strives to replicate the audio integrity of Nirvana’s recorded work while capturing the electric fury that the group was known for on stage, will perform at the Mauch Chunk Opera House in Jim Thorpe on Thursday, Oct. 26.

Doors open at 7 p.m., and the show begins at 7:30 p.m.

Tickets, which are $18, can be purchased on the Opera House website, by calling 570-325-0249, and by visiting SoundCheck Records (23 Broadway, Jim Thorpe) or calling them at 570-325-4009. The facility (14 W. Broadway, Jim Thorpe) is open from noon-5 p.m. on show days, and tickets are available for most shows at the door at showtime. Parking is available and free after 5 p.m. at the Carbon County lot behind the train station.

From Southern California, Nirvanish specializes in tribute performances of the entire “Nevermind,” “In Utero,” and “MTV Unplugged in New York” albums, with additional well-known singles for the passing fans and deep cuts for the diehard grunge rockers.

Nirvanish captures the raw live experience for the many fans who didn’t have the opportunity to see the legendary band in person.

Nirvanish features drummer Joey Gnoffo, known for his roles in reality TV shows “Little Women: LA” and “Little Women: Terra’s Little Family” on the Lifetime Network as well as in movies like “The Benchwarmers” and “Mirror Mirror.”
