Growing Up ¦ No Obligation

The Linda Lindas auf Wikipedia (oder andere Quellen):

The Linda Lindas is an American rock band from Los Angeles.[4][6] The all-female group comprises Bela Salazar, Eloise Wong, and sisters Lucia and Mila de la Garza.[2][3]

The band formed in 2018, and took their name from Linda Linda Linda, a Japanese film. After being noticed by director Amy Poehler, they recorded the soundtrack for her film Moxie, which was released in 2021. Later that year, they released the single "Racist, Sexist Boy", which went viral. Epitaph Records signed them shortly afterwards.

In 2022, they released their debut album, Growing Up, and received mostly positive reviews.

History

2018–2020: Formation and EPs

In January 2018, Eloise Wong's father Martin Wong was contacted by an acquaintance, asking if she would be interested in playing alongside Kristin Kontrol and a bunch of "inexperienced kids" for a performance at a music festival called Girlschool LA,[7] after seeing pictures and videos of her singing at Save Music in Chinatown. Martin then suggested Lucia and Mila de la Garza, daughters of his sister Angelyn Wong and brother-in-law Carlos de la Garza, since the three of them often sang, danced and performed together since they were toddlers; Carlos, who owned a backyard studio, took up the position of a second coach. After Kontrol recruited more children through social media and the first round of rehearsals were held, Angelyn and Martin's wife Wendy Lau reached out to the girls' family friend Bela Salazar, who was taking guitar lessons, to join in, thinking that they needed someone who could play an instrument.[8] Originally, it was intended to be a one-off project, but a few months later, Salazar was invited to open a show for Frieda's Roses, and engaged Eloise, Lucia and Mila to be her backing band.[9]

Feeling that the band needed a name, Martin, who had bought a DVD of 2005 Japanese film Linda Linda Linda,[4] (in turn named after the Blue Hearts song "Linda Linda"[10]), suggested The Linda Lindas, feeling that it "sounded like a band from the '50s but could also refer to the Japanese punk song or art movie, or simply mean 'really pretty' in Spanish", to which the girls agreed.[9] By fall, they were playing Save Music in Chinatown matinee gigs alongside artists such as Phranc, the Dils, the Gears, and the Alley Cats, and other shows with bands such as Best Coast, Alice Bag, and Bleached.

After Amy Poehler watched the Linda Lindas open for Bikini Kill on April 26, 2019, at the Hollywood Palladium, she had them record songs for her film Moxie.[11] In 2020, the Linda Lindas wrote a song for Netflix documentary The Claudia Kishi Club, titled "Claudia Kishi", after the Japanese-American character in Ann M. Martin's novel series The Baby-Sitters Club.[12][13]

2021–2022: "Racist, Sexist Boy" and Growing Up

In May 2021, the Los Angeles Public Library posted a video of the band playing "Racist, Sexist Boy" at a "TEENtastic Tuesdays" event.[12] The song was about an experience Mila de la Garza, the band's drummer, had when a schoolmate made a racist comment before the COVID-19 pandemic.[14] The video became a viral social media hit, earning praise from Rage Against the Machine's Tom Morello, Red Hot Chili Peppers's Flea,[12] Thurston Moore,[15] Bikini Kill's Kathleen Hanna,[14] and Kid Cudi.[16] Author Viet Thanh Nguyen said "'Racist, Sexist Boy' is the song we need now".[14] On May 22, Epitaph Records announced that it had signed the Linda Lindas,[5][17] in a deal which they had been working on since before the video went viral.[18]

On June 3, 2021, the band made their late night television debut on Jimmy Kimmel Live.[19][20] On July 21, 2021, the band released the single "Oh!" with an accompanying music video.[21] The song also was featured in the trailer released for the Netflix series The Chair,[21] which was released that same day. The song was also played for the outro of series 1 episode 5 of The Imperfects.[22] On February 1, 2022, the band announced their release date of their debut album, Growing Up, alongside the release of the single of the same name.[23] Growing Up was released on April 8, 2022, to generally positive reviews.[24] The track "Racist, Sexist Boy" was nominated for Best Song at the 2022 Kerrang! Awards.[25]

2023–present: Further events, touring and No Obligation

The band performed at the 22nd Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in April 2023[26] and at the 95th Scripps National Spelling Bee in May 2023 in Maryland where they were the first to ever perform at the event. The band opened for Paramore on the This Is Why Tour.[27]

The Linda Lindas' song "Growing Up" was featured on the soundtrack for Inside Out 2. On July 13, 2024, the band opened for the Rolling Stones at SoFi Stadium, as part of their Hackney Diamonds Tour. On July 16, the band released the single "All in My Head" as the first teaser from their second album No Obligation.[28] The band opened for Green Day, along with the Smashing Pumpkins, during the Saviors Tour. They premiered the second song off the album, "Yo Me Estreso", at the Chicago show on August 13, 2024, and was released the next day.

They were guest stars from children's television, Yo Gabba Gabbaland. They played Little Ants and performed Happy to be Little.

In October 2024, the band announced their 2025 North American Tour, with concerts during March and April.[29]
