On Sunday, August 11th at 4pm, B-Fly and Polly Vinyl sit down with singer-guitarist, Donita Sparks, of legendary L.A. queens of grunge, L7. Tune in to hear all about the current news with the band including their upcoming show on August 13th at the Concord Pavilion with Foo Fighters.
L7’s signature sound of a heavy, catchy, mixture of punk, metal, noise and pop helped usher in the era of Grunge. Since their recording career began in 1987, the band has released six studio albums, three live albums, one covers LP, and one greatest hits to date on labels including Epitaph, Sup Pop, Slash, and Warner Brothers.
Founded in Los Angeles in 1985 by Donita Sparks-guitar and vocals, and Suzi Gardner– guitar and vocals, the band features Dee Plakas on drums and Jennifer Finch – bass and vocals.
While particularly known for their unforgettably raucous live performances, the band also spawned underground and mainstream hits including “Shove”, “Pretend We’re Dead”, “Shitlist”, “Andres”, “Fuel My Fire” and more. Their music can be heard in television (ER), video games (Grand Theft Auto, Rock Band 2) and popular films including The Perks Of Being a Wallflower, Natural Born Killers and John Water’s classic Serial Mom, in which they also star as fictitious band Camel Lips.
