Pearl Jam made music history with their hits in the 1990's and it seems even country star Carrie Underwood was listening.
Speaking with Spinner.com, the Nashville star explained her passion for the band and their fellow grunge counterparts as a youngster:
"I grew up listening to '80s glam hair metal. And then, when I got older in the '90s, the whole grunge thing was huge and I was totally into it. I was all about Pearl Jam, all about Alice in Chains and Nirvana and all of that stuff."
The erstwhile grunge rockers also made recent headlines when they were announced as the headlining act for the inaugural Made in America Festival in Philadelphia alongside Jay-Z.
Last week, Jay and Philly Mayor Michael Nutter announced that the two-day festival would be happening on the Benjamin Franklin Parkway on Labor Day weekend.
