When the Pixies broke up the first time in 1992, Dayton-native Deal delivered a break-out hit album with her band The Breeders, “Last Splash,” and since leaving re-united Pixies in 2013, she’s been back with The Breeders. These days, the Pixies are the original trio of Francis, drummer David Lovering, and lead guitarist Joey Santiago, and bassist Paz Lenchantin, who had played in the past with Zwan, led by Billy Corgan of Smashing Pumpkins, and A Perfect Circle, led by Maynard James Keenan of Tool, who covers the parts played by original Pixies bassist Kim Deal. Led by singer-songwriter Black Francis, the Pixies were most active and ultimately influential in the late 80s and early 90s, where the band’s hooky soft/loud verse/chorus patterns made a strong impression on Nirvana’s Kurt Cobain and many others, including Weezer.
