The Breeders perform Cannonball on Later… with Jools Holland on BBC Two (22nd May 2018). Kim Deal emerges from the wreckage of alt-rock heroes the Pixies with her twin sister, Kelley, on guitar and a freewheeling, shaggyheaded, bighearted mess of a song. “Cannonball” was one of the weirdest radio hits of the Nineties – or any decade before it.The Breeders busted out an old favorite on Tuesday night’s episode of the live BBC late-night show Later…with Jools Holland with a performance of their 1993 breakthrough hit “Cannonball.” The Deal sisters and company also played “Wait in the Car,” the first single off of their fantastic 2018 album All Nerve.
Marvel at the extreme, head-on closeup of Kim Deal’sface as she sings, “I know you’re a real cuckoo” and that weird camera angle seemingly shot from under drummer Jim Macpherson’s seat.
