A lot of people don't know that the Go-Go's came from the L.A. punk scene.
But the Go-Go's are a very original, kind of organic thing.
With Sleater-Kinney, we have a lot of earnest fans, and we were an earnest band.
I loooved Sleater-Kinney like a crazy person.
Fifth Harmony is its own entity.
The Go-Go's were like my first babies.
I used to think when I was in the Go-Go's that we were as wild as any of the boy bands.
We're a band and we just happen to be chicks, that's the way we've always thought of ourselves.
Actually, there was another band where we were three girls, around '84 when I met John Zorn, called Sunset Chorus. It was just bass and drums and guitar- we didn't make any records but we played a lot of different clubs in New York.
I saw Sleater Kinney perform back when I was in college.
At some point I was hanging around with the Butchies - a band I ended up playing with a lot - and it just brought out this thing in me... and it felt very different from the Indigo Girls.
I'm in a band with my three sisters called the Atomics, which is awesome.
In April of 1978 I was asked to join an all-girl band that was just taking shape, The Go-Go's. It was one of those moments in my life - and there were many - when I just blurted out 'Yes!'
Thank you for the music, Sleater-Kinney. This gang of three was the best American punk rock band ever. Ever.
