Eddie Vedder turns solo vulnerability into a powerful plea in Netflix’s 'Matter of Time'

Eddie Vedder uses two emotional solo concerts and a new Netflix film to push for a cure for epidermolysis bullosa. In October 2023, he played two sold-out shows in Seattle that form the basis for “Matter of Time,” which mixes songs with stories from families facing EB. The disorder makes skin so fragile it can blister and tear from minor contact. Vedder and his wife, Jill, started EB Research Partnership in 2010 to fund science and build awareness. As for what is next, Vedder said there will be more Pearl Jam music.
