Krist Novaselic has one of the coolest supergroups of all-time. 3rd Secret made their debut in the spring featuring Krist Novoselic of Nirvana, Matt Cameron of Pearl Jam and Soundgarden, and Kim Thayil of Soundgarden. The band also features Bubba Dupree (Void), Jillian Raye (Novoselic’s bandmate from Giants in the Trees), and Jennifer Johnson.

They released their debut album earlier this year (the first for Thayil & Cameron since the passing of Chris Cornell). You can hear their album below, but let’s get to the most recent news from Novoselic … on October 22nd he wrote an update on his blog Deep River Dispatch that included a line that caught our attention …

“Then there is music. Been playing guitar around the house. Finger style in the American Primitive. Matt came over the other day and I loaded him with produce. We started plotting the next 3rd Secret record. He’s not touring with Pearl Jam until the spring, so he’s all ours!! 3rd Secret is really nowhere on the mainstream musical radar. It’s my fault as I am leading this project at this point. I have the luxury of not caring about promotion. Mainstream media is wretched, so I am keeping myself unspotted from it. Others in the group might not share my indulgence so this can change. I am not the boss of this band! Am just the one pushing to make things happen. Looks like November / soon to start the followup 3rd Secret.”

The line talking about Pearl Jam drummer Matt Cameron – “He’s not touring with Pearl Jam until the spring, so he’s all ours!!” … um, so is there a NEW Pearl Jam tour coming in 2023!!? No official news has been released from the band yet but holy moly this is potentially exciting news…
