The Pixies….Band seeks bassist in to Hüsker Dü and Peter, Paul & Mary. Please – no chops.
The good news for Kim Deal? She was the only person who responded to Boston alt-rock songsmith Black Francis’ classified. The bad? She came to her audition sans bass. And had never previously played that instrument. But according to Fool the World: An Oral History of a Band Called Pixies, Kim Deal was in because she dug Francis’ tunes. She borrowed sister Kelley Deal’s bass to get started.
