Nevada City, CA – Get ready heshers and headbangers. Blistered Earth, the ultimate tribute to Metallica is coming to Nevada City.
The Miners Foundry Cultural Center is pleased to present Blistered Earth on Saturday, July 20. The doors and bar open at 7 p.m. and the show begins at 8 p.m.
Formed in 2009, Blistered Earth is the definitive tribute to Metallica. Hailing from Spokane, Washington the band has built a hardcore and dedicated following headlining venues across the Western U.S. and Canada.
In 2016, the band even caught the eye of James Hetfield of Metallica when their equipment trailer with all their gear was stolen. When Hetfield and the rest of the band members from Metallica heard the news, they reached out to help by offering Blistered Earth gear from their previous tour.
The relationship was formed and Blistered Earth became a welcomed special guest to shows. When Metallica shared photos of the band on social media, Blistered Earth was introduced to millions of Metallica fans from around the world.
Blistered Earth continues to pay its respects to one of the greatest heavy metal bands of all time with covers of favorite classic songs like 1983 “Kill Em’ All” and 1991 self-titled “Metallica.” Blistered Earth guarantees die hard Metallica fans the same devotion to raw energy, showmanship and song selections at every show.
The band is: Jared Kiess (a.k.a. James Hetfield), Shawn Murphy (a.k.a. Lars Ulrich), Cody Davis (a.k.a. Cliff Burton) and Jesse Jensen (a.k.a. Kirk Hammett).
