Show Notes
On this episode of SPIN Presents Lipps Service with Scott Lipps, Scott sits down with alternative rock icon Melissa Auf der Maur.
Best known for her time in Hole during the Live Through This era and later with The Smashing Pumpkins alongside Billy Corgan, Melissa takes us inside one of the most defining moments in music history — the 1990s alternative explosion.
Melissa opens up about playing on Courtney Love’s new record, the possibility of a Hole reunion, her decision to step away from music, and her life today in upstate New York. She reflects on growing up in Montreal, her first musical memories, and how she discovered her voice through bass and photography.
The conversation dives deep into her relationships with Courtney Love, Billy Corgan, Dave Grohl, and Jeff Buckley, along with firsthand stories from the Nirvana era, the feminist movement in rock, and the raw energy of Hole’s early shows.
Melissa also discusses her new memoir Even the Good Girls Will Cry, featuring never-before-seen photos and personal stories from inside the 90s alternative scene.
Plus — Top 5 Hole songs, Smashing Pumpkins songs, and bass players.
