Nirvana UK
A uk based nirvana tribute striving to be as authentic as possible
Nirvana UK are one of the world's leading tribute acts, dedicated to recreating the raw power and spirit of Nirvana’s legendary live shows. Formed in the mid-2010s in the West Midlands, the band delivers an authentic, high-energy experience that transports fans straight back to the grunge era.
With Jez as Kurt Cobain, Dan as Krist Novoselic, and Jon as Dave Grohl, the band performs with striking accuracy—vocally, visually, and musically. From the iconic guitars, amps, and pedals Nirvana used on tour, to the exact wardrobe and stage presence, every detail is designed to honour the original band. Their shows even feature additional musicians on select dates to perform songs from MTV Unplugged and Nirvana’s 1993–94 live lineup.
Touring extensively across the UK and Europe, Nirvana UK have played major venues like O₂ Academy Brixton, The Underworld Camden, and Zénith de Paris, as well as countless festivals and sold-out clubs. Their setlists span Nirvana’s full catalogue—from the grit of Bleach, to the anthems of Nevermind, and the raw emotion of In Utero.
Whether it’s the haunting calm of “All Apologies” or the chaos of “Smells Like Teen Spirit,” Nirvana UK delivers with passion, precision, and explosive energy. Their mission is simple: to give fans the closest possible experience to seeing Nirvana live.
