Kim Shattuck Leaves The Pixies
Just months after recruiting Muffs low ender Kim Shattuck, The Pixies are once again bassless. Shattuck announced her dismissal on her Facebook page.
“Super disappointed to learn that my time with the Pixies ended today,” the bassist shared. “Amazing experience. Looking forward to focusing my attention back on the Muffs and our upcoming new album. All the best to everyone.”
The band has yet to make an official statement on the situation. Shattuck took over for longtime bassist Kim Deal, who quit in June, and was released days after completing 2013 leg of their worldwide tour. The Pixies will resume touring in January, though a replacement has not been named.
In his time with No Treble, Kevin has met hundreds of amazing bassists and interviewed icons like Jack Casady, Victor Wooten, Les Claypool, Marcus Miller, and more. He's a gigging bassist performing jazz in Northern Virginia and bluegrass with The Plate Scrapers up and down the East Coast. Kevin appreciates all genres of music, from R&B to metal and everything in between. Connect with Kevin on Facebook and check his performance schedule on his website.
