Meat Puppets’ next Boston-area show is February 5, 2027 at Roadrunner.
Meat Puppets play a loose, sunbaked strain of American rock, Curt Kirkwood's wobbly guitar leads out front. They started as a hardcore band in Phoenix and drifted into psychedelic country on Meat Puppets II and Up on the Sun. Three of their songs turned up on Nirvana's MTV Unplugged, which is how most people found them.
