"We're excited to head into uncharted band territory with our SiriusXM 'Town Hall,'" said Pearl Jam guitarist Stone Gossard. "Since this is one of the first times that any of our fans will have the chance to hear Lightning Bolt, I'm psyched to see how they respond to the new music and to answer some of their questions about the making of the record."

"Pearl Jam and their music have become emblematic of a generation of rock music and have inspired musicians for the past two decades, and they continue to create new music that has intensity and passion," said Scott Greenstein, President and Chief Content Officer, SiriusXM. "This event, broadcast from the band's home town, will offer lucky winners the opportunity to ask questions in person to one of the world's most influential bands.
