Chad Channing, formerly the drummer in Nirvana, is recording material with his new band Before Cars.
Channing, who preceded Dave Grohlin Nirvana, is responsible for lead vocals, rhythm guitar and drums in the new band.
Although not Nirvana’s original drummer, Channing was the first to appear on a Nirvana recording, playing on first single ‘Love Buzz’ and the group’s debut album, 1989’s ‘Bleach’.
His memories of Nirvana are mainly pleasant.
"Kurt was always really nice, really quiet," Channing told Rolling Stone magazine.
"I always wished I'd had just one more oppertunity to talk to him."
Before Cars' first album will be produced by ‘Bleach’ producer Jack Endino.
