Eyes Adrift (known in Australia as Bud, Curt & Krist) was a three-piece rock supergroup consisting of Krist Novoselic (bass guitar, formerly of Nirvana), Curt Kirkwood (guitar and lead vocals, of Meat Puppets), and Bud Gaugh (drums, formerly of Sublime and Long Beach Dub Allstars). They released a self-titled album (see below) in 2002, which was a mixture of punk, grunge, and country, taking all of their previous backgrounds and putting them together. They later broke up in 2003, after their debut album flopped. Kirkwood and Gaugh went on to form Volcano. The album is currently out of print.
In Australia, there was another group called "Eyes Adrift", and rather than pay to license that name, the trio called the band and album "Bud, Curt & Krist".
Eyes Adrift (Bud, Curt & Krist in Australia), the band's only album, was released on September 24, 2002. "Alaska" was the album's only single, released on March 3, 2003 in the UK.
"Inquiring Minds" is dedicated to JonBenét Ramsey.
The Japanese edition of the album, released on January 29, 2003 includes two additional tracks; "Son of Pasted" (also known as "The Jerk") and "The Cup & The Lip".
The CD single to "Alaska", released on December 2, 2003 includes the tracks: "The Jerk" and "The Cup & the Lip".
Novoselic sings lead on "Inquiring Minds", "Dottie Dawn & Julie Jewel" and "Pasted", while Kirkwood handles the rest of the lead vocals.
