Brandi Carlile Sings with Soundgarden
“Seattle is my home. It’s where I met the twins. It’s in my soul. I travel the country now for the greatest job on earth but when I dream of Seattle I hear Soundgarden in my sleep.
We used to play all the dirty four hour sets in all the darkened bars in Pioneer Square, and from Queen Anne to Georgetown I screamed out “searching with my good eye closed” at least twice a night. I wanted to sound exactly like Chris Cornell. You could smoke here then, and it lowered my voice...gave it an edge. To me, Soundgarden is honesty and mysticism - they breathe rock and roll. Soundgarden ARE rock and roll.
To the independent record stores woven into this great big pinball machine of a country- thank you for bringing me and Soundgarden together here in real life...outside of my dreams. No one sings like him anymore....but Kim, Matt, and Ben, I’m humbled and proud to sing these songs with you.
Look for this album in select record stores on Record Store Day, 4/18!”

For this year’s Record Store Day, the surviving members of Soundgarden have teamed with Seattle singer Brandi Carlile to record new versions of “Black Hole Sun” and “Searching With My Good Eye Closed.”
The tribute to late Soundgarden vocalist Chris Cornell will be released as a 12-inch on September 26th, part of a socaily distant three-day Record Store Day, with releases being staggered over the 3 days, of course the CV 19 pandemic scrapped the regular April event this year.
Carlile wrote about the recording of her early demos with her band, saying, “Soundgarden were just gods to us back then. Total pioneers and unreachable to us in every way. We went about making our demos and cleaning the studio when we couldn’t afford the bill, never knowing that in November of 2019 we would go back to London Bridge (Studios)and RECORD TWO SONGS WITH THEM!!”
