L7 Announce 40th Anniversary Show

L7 will be celebrating their 40th anniversary during a special show at The Belasco in Los Angeles, CA on October 3. The concert will also feature Lunachicks and CSS.

Frontwoman Donita Sparks commented:

“This will mark the second year of our annual takeover of The Belasco Theater in Los Angeles which coincides with L7’s 40th anniversary, so we are making it a big party!

Suzi [Gardner] and I started the band way back in 1985 withstanding many trials and tribulations, band members, and misogynist rock dinosaurs. Gratefully, we survived, even thrived at times, and we want to celebrate with some of our very special friends who joined us along the way.

Enter our sisters-in-arms Lunachicks, whom we haven’t played a show with since 1990, at CBGBs in New York City. This will truly be a momentous event of insanity and rock and roll.

Adding to this rowdiness are our pals CSS, who will get the electro-fun party going. We go back with those maniacs as well.

I think all three of our bands share a certain sense of humor, political right-on-ness and bombastic energy so look out mellow ones… you will be rocking! Come on out and join our celebration.”
