About the Event:

Join us for a one-of-a-kind evening in the Salt Shed’s Three Top Lounge with Melissa Auf der Maur as she discusses her riveting new rock ‘n’ roll memoir Even the Good Girls Will Cry. Settle in to hear Auf der Maur as she gives us an inside look into her bohemian upbringing in Montreal’s creative scene, how she was thrust onto the global stage during Hole’s grief-stricken 1994 Live Through This world tour — after the deaths of Kurt Cobain and Kristen Pfaff — her time with The Smashing Pumpkins, her transition into solo work, and everything in between. You won’t want to miss as Auf der Maur gives us a vivid dispatch from the last analog decade, artistically capturing that bygone era in all its messy, angsty glory.

Following the discussion, enjoy an exclusive DJ set from Auf der Maur herself. Auf der Maur will pull you onto the dark dance floor with the darkest sweetest synths from the ‘80s til present. Calling on those longing for the Goth clubs of the lost world, lovers of Depeche Mode, and underground industrial darkwave of NOW.

Presented in partnership with the Salt Shed's Nightcap: A Lecture Series
