Superchunk To Rock Museum For Album Release Show
. The museum is the only North Carolina venue for the Chapel Hill-based band's national fall tour in support of their new album, "Majesty Shredding." The concert is open to the public and begins at 8:30 p.m. The Superchunk performance, a complement to the Nasher Museum's exhibition "The Record: Contemporary Art and Vinyl," will take place after a 6 p.m. talk by New York-based visual artist Xaviera Simmons, whose work is part of the exhibition. "The Record" explores the culture of vinyl records through 50 years of contemporary art and features work by 41 artists from around the world who use vinyl records as subject or medium. "After releasing their first 7-inch in 1989, Superchunk became one of North Carolina's most famous rock exports, and excitement for their new album is spreading nationwide. They also have many connections to 'The Record,' " said Trevor Schoonmaker, curator of contemporary art at the Nasher Museum. "Superchunk frontman Mac McCaughan wrote an essay for 'The Record' catalogue and co-wrote with Harrison Haynes a song for a 12-inch record project by Xaviera Simmons for the exhibition." Tickets are $12 for adults and $6 for Nasher Museum members and $5 for Duke students with I.D.
