O’Loughlin persuaded Birch and da Silva to play a show at The Garage in London in March 1994 with Steve Shelley (Sonic Youth) on drums and Anne Wood on violin to celebrate the album re-releases. They recorded a session for BBC Radio 1 ‘s John Peel , which was released as Extended Play on Paul Smith’s Blast First and Shelley’s label Smells Like Records . Cobain invited them to play on Nirvana’s planned UK tour in April 1994, but he died a week before the tour began. The Raincoats released Looking in the Shadows on Rough Trade/ Geffen in 1996, produced by Britpop producer Ed Buller (who had previously worked with Suede and Pulp ). Musicians included Wood (violin, bass), Heather Dunn (drums), and Pete Shelley ( Buzzcocks ).
