SKB Records has announced the 11th month of Tony Award winner Lena Hall's yearlong Obsessed series, featuring monthly releases of EPs and music videos. The November installment will explore the songs of the '90s grunge rock pioneers Nirvana. Obsessed: Nirvana is now available for preorder and will be released in digital and streaming formats on Friday, November 2.

Obsessed: Nirvana includes "Smells Like Teen Spirit," "All Apologies," "Breed," and more. A 12th edition will be released in December.

Obsessed will ultimately consist of 12 EPs, each released on the first Friday of every month. Performance music videos have been created for all 54 songs in the series, and a new music video will premiere every week in 2018. Previous releases in Hall's Obsessed series have focused on Beck, David Bowie, Jack White, Radiohead, P!nk, the Cranberries, Elton John, Peter Gabriel, and Hedwig and the Angry Inch, in which she gave her breakout, Tony-winning performance as Yitzhak in the musical's 2014 Broadway revival.
