About

The Linda Lindas first played together as members of a pickup new wave cover band of kids assembled by Kristin Kontrol (Dum Dum Girls) for Girlschool LA in 2018 and then formed their own garage punk group just for fun. Sisters Mila de la Garza (drummer, now 11) and Lucia de la Garza (guitar, 14), cousin Eloise Wong (bass, 13), and family friend Bela Salazar (guitar, 17) developed their chops as regulars at all-ages matinees in Chinatown, where they played with original L.A. punks like The Dils, Phranc, and Alley Cats; went on to open for riot grrrl legends Bikini Kill and architect Alice Bag as well as DIY heavyweights Best Coast and Bleached; and were eventually featured in Amy Poehler's movie Moxie.

When the pandemic put a pause on shows, The Linda Lindas went on to self-release a four-song EP, make their own videos (including a get-out-the-vote effort with friends such as Tony Reflex from Adolescents, Adam Pfahler from Jawbreaker, Tae Won Yu from Kicking Giant, Allison Wolfe, Lois Maffeo, Money Mark, and Mike Watt), and grow a following beyond Los Angeles. But they never expected or could have even dreamed that their performance of "Racist, Sexist Boy" for the Los Angeles Public Library in May 2021 would take them from punk shows to TV shows.

A month later, when the school year ended and summer began, The Linda Lindas got to work on their first full-length LP. Having written a mountain of new material individually while sheltering in place and attending class virtually, the band was more than ready to enter the studio where Mila and Lucia's dad (and Eloise's uncle and Bela's "uncle") Carlos de la Garza oversaw recording and production. The Grammy-winning producer's work includes Paramore, Bad Religion, Best Coast, and Bleached.

A product of generations of underground music in L.A. and beyond, The Linda Lindas' debut channels classic punk, post punk, power pop, new wave, and other surprises into timelessly catchy and cool songs sung by all four members - each with her own style and energy. A handful of cuts have already been previewed at shows and enthusiastically approved by diehard followers in the pit at L.A.'s DIY punk institution The Smell and Head in the Cloud festivalgoers at The Rose Bowl alike. The Linda Lindas are stoked to unleash Growing Up.

    Great bands Great venue

    by Jay on 11/24/23The Observatory North Park - San Diego

    “So cool!” said the group of teens we took to the Linda Lindas. They were thrilled and inspired and said the music was so powerful in person vs the recorded versions.

    Amazing energy and talent

    by Trin on 11/22/23The Observatory North Park - San Diego

    This band has probably been one of my favorites to see live. The energy is amazing and they sound exactly like their Spotify if not better. The concert was kids and adult friendly. Highly recommend

    Fantastic

    by Bitter on 8/11/23

    Opened for Paramore at Climate Pledge in Seattle went in with zero experience with their group and loved their songs. Eloise along with the rest of the band killed it.

    Phenomenal

    by D. R. on 7/29/23

    Saw them open for Paramore and was instantly in love. They have so much energy and their style of rock was so cool and almost "vintage". Their art work and visuals were so stunning and cute and attention grabbing. They put on a great show. Cant wait to see them headline some day 💖

    Kick-ass, fun punk band !

    by J. L. on 7/29/22The Foundry - Philadelphia

    These 4 ladies delivered the goods: I was expecting good music infused with a punk attitude and a dash of humor - and that's exactly what we got. An energetic set of well-executed tunes, with great vocals, guitar, bass and drumming - and some rockstar acrobatics. What more could you ask? Set featured their own material and a couple of covers - never a dull moment - and and a good dose of charm, too. The Linda Lindas are already in the big time - touring big league US cities after their European debut - but are down to earth, funny, and really nice people. Example: before the doors opened, Bela and Eloise walked outside to thank fans for showing up, chatted and took some selfies with fans. I'd go and see them again in a heartbeat.

    Excellent band

    by JM on 7/28/22Bowery Ballroom - New York

    The Linda Lindas are one of the best rock bands I've seen live ever, of any age. It's amazing and great that they're still kids. Their parents must be so proud. They're excellent musicians, they write great songs, and they have fun doing it. And my teenager loves them, too. I hope they keep doing it forever. They're only going to get better.
