Krist Novoselic
Krist Anthony Novoselic (born May 16, 1965) is an American rock musician. He was born in Compton, California. His parents were immigrants from Croatia, and Novoselic spent some time living there.
He is, by far, best known for playing bass in the band Nirvana. After Nirvana's dissolution in the wake of Kurt Cobain's suicide, Novoselic formed the band Sweet 75, which was a commercial failure. Later, he joined Jello Biafra and former Soundgarden guitarist Kim Thayil in the No WTO Combo. He was the bassist for the super-group band Eyes Adrift, which also included former Meat Puppets frontman Curt Kirkwood and former Sublime and Long Beach Dub Allstars drummer Bud Gaugh. After dismal sales of their self-titled debut, the trio disbanded in 2003.
Novoselic remains active in politics, making appearances to advocate electoral reform (especially instant-runoff voting and proportional representation) and running the website fixour.us (http://www.fixour.us/). He was contemplating a run for the Lieutenant Governorship of Washington State, but decided against it. He recently got married.
