"As we promised in 2020, and for the first time, we are thrilled to bring one of the greatest rock bands ever to the legendary Apollo Theater for a historic, once-in-a lifetime, performance exclusively for our SiriusXM subscribers," said Scott Greenstein, SiriusXM's president and chief content officer. "Pearl Jam Radio has become a primary destination for fans and they won't want to miss this."
PEARL JAM roared back on the stage last year and performed music from "Gigaton" for the first time during a string of unforgettable shows. Now, the "(Tour Edition)" consists of energetic and emotionally charged renditions of new favorites, including "Dance Of The Clairvoyants", "Superblood Wolfmoon", "Retrograde" and more. Upon arrival, "Gigaton" bowed at No. 1 on the Billboard Top Rock Albums Chart and the Top 10 of the Billboard Top 200.
Additionally, the band has just released a video for the "Gigaton" track "Quick Escape". The video was directed by famed director Samuel Bayer (NIRVANA, THE ROLLING STONES, David Bowie) and features Bayer's son Ziggy as well as stunts by famed stuntman Eddie Braun.
