THE LINDA LINDAS share a cover of THE GO-GO’S Tonite’

Beloved Los Angeles punk band The Linda Lindas share a cover of The Go-Gos’s classic “Tonite.”

Of the cover the band says: “The Linda Lindas started out as a cover band, and we’ve played more songs by The Go-Go’s than anyone else. And even after we started to write our own songs, we never stopped playing ‘Tonite.’ We love the idea of us going out and owning our town, and ‘Tonite’ is as fun to play as it is empowering––especially the part where we all sing together. ‘We rule the streets tonite until the morning light’ and so should our fans. Because the cover is such a hit at shows, we decided to record a studio version to pay tribute to the greatest all-female rock band of all time, a crucial part of the L.A. punk scene, and our heroes.”

The band’s debut album was released earlier this year to wide critical praise with The New York Times calling it “a combination of wholesome and fierce” and Pitchfork hailing it as “the most heartwarming record of the year.” Growing Up is out now via Epitaph Records.

“In pigtails and power-clashing plaids, they may be the country’s most exciting teen punk band, a galvanizing combination of wholesome and fierce.”

-New York Times

“On their debut album, the teen (and pre-teen) punk rockers turn adolescent angst and razor-sharp hooks into heartwarming pop-punk with ample charm.”

-Pitchfork

“The Linda Lindas’ music is incredibly fun — and has something to say”

-NPR 

“Playful, empowering, and catchy to boot.”

-Vulture 

“The group offers a fresh spin on the California punk of the late ‘70s and ‘80s (The Adolescents, The Bags), providing a sorely needed modern perspective, while touching on everything from youthful anxiety to systemic oppression to, well, cats.”
