A stage-used Remo Weatherking Pinstripe drumhead signed by all three members of Luscious Jackson — Jill Cunniff, Gabby Glaser, and Kate Schellenbach — acquired directly from the band. The head retains an original black foam muffling pad affixed to the interior — confirming its use as a working stage drumhead rather than a display piece. The specific performance date is not documented.
Historical Context
Luscious Jackson are a New York City indie rock and alternative band comprising Jill Cunniff (vocals, bass), Gabby Glaser (vocals, guitar), Kate Schellenbach (drums), and Vivian Trimble (keyboards). Formed in the early 1990s and signed to the Beastie Boys’ Grand Royal label, they released a series of critically regarded albums including Natural Ingredients (1994), Fever In Fever Out (1996), and Electric Honey (1999), gaining significant MTV and radio exposure throughout the decade. Schellenbach’s drumming is central to the band’s propulsive, rhythm-driven sound, and this drumhead originates from her active stage kit.
