Black Daze: The Ultimate Soundgarden Tribute & Nearvana: Tribute to Nirvana at The Canyon – Montclair

What began as a side project to stay focused and productive during the COVID-19 pandemic turned into Black Daze - The Ultimate Soundgarden Tribute. Nikki Lane Taylor (drums, vocals) and Chaz Leon (vocals, guitar) decided to form a band that would challenge them musically. Noticing the resemblance between Chaz and Chris Cornell, Nikki suggested a Soundgarden Tribute. After a bit of laughter, knowing this would be an extremely difficult task, they recruited two outstanding, veteran players who were also up to the challenge: Greg Coates (bass, vocals) and Dennis D'Angelo (guitar, vocals). All band members being Soundgarden fans, after their first jam the excitement and musical chemistry between them was immediate and undeniable. The rest is history… Black Daze focuses on music from all eras of Soundgarden, including many deep cuts loved by die-hard fans that are rarely, if ever, performed live. The majority of Cornell tribute bands will pay homage to Chris Cornell, only incorporating a few well known songs by Soundgarden into their set list. Black Daze performs a wide range of songs within the entire Soundgarden catalogue, as well as popular hits from Chris’ solo career, Temple of the Dog and Audio Slave. Black Daze offers fans something the music world desperately needs: A worthy tribute to the almighty rock legends, SOUNDGARDEN!
