Nutshell by Alice In Chains

Some songs don’t age, they just ache forever.

In this episode of Allison Unchained, Allison Hagendorf dives into the real story behind “Nutshell” by Alice In Chains, a hauntingly beautiful song that feels as raw today as it did when it was released.

Written by Layne Staley during a time of deep isolation and struggle, “Nutshell” captures a level of vulnerability that’s almost hard to sit with and impossible to ignore.

It’s a reminder that music can hold what we don’t always have the words forand become something we return to when we need it most.
