Band biography
Nirvana photo
The American grunge band Nirvana was formed in Aberdeen, Washington, in 1987. They signed a deal with the Sup Pop label and quickly rose to become one of the most important bands in the Seattle grunge scene. Several successful albums and tours were to follow but on February 29th, 1994, Nirvana played their last show ever in Munich, Germany. In March 1994 band leader Kurt Cobain overdosed on a holiday visit in Italy and went into coma. On April 8th, 1994, he committed suicide by firing a gun into his own mouth. He was 27 years old. That was the end of Nirvana.
