Trees is an American live music venue opened in 1990 in the Deep Ellum district of downtown Dallas, Texas. In addition to hosting international touring musical ensembles such as Nirvana,Snoop Dogg,The Flaming Lips,Death Grips,Daughter,The Wailers,Nick Jonas, and Run the Jewels, the venue has received numerous accolades from the Dallas Observer.
Trees first opened its doors as a venue in May 1990. Named for its trunk-like support beams, Trees hosted bands including Nirvana, Radiohead, Mazzy Star, and The Afghan Whigs during its initial run as a venue before the club closed in May 2005. It was reopened on August 14, 2009 by Clint Barlow, former drummer for Vanilla Ice and spouse Whitney Barlow. Since its resurrection, the venue has seen acts including Hiatus Kaiyote,Matt Corby,Charlie Puth,Robert DeLong,Charli XCX, and Jess Glynne.
On October 19, 1991, Nirvana played an infamous set at Trees to a completely sold out crowd. As the show was booked before the band released their breakout hit album, Nevermind, the venue was not large enough to accommodate the amount of fans that came. Nirvana's tour manager demanded last minute that Trees hire heightened security, as there was no barrier between the stage and the crowd.
