Ten Bands One Cause 2022

Formed in Los Angeles in 1981, The Bangles are an American band who had several hit singles throughout the 1980s. Their hits included "Walk Like An Egyptian", "Hazy Shade Of Winter", and the 1989 No.1 single "Eternal Flame". After officially breaking up in 1989, they reunited almost ten years later in 1998 and continued to make music together. In 2003, they released their first album since 1988's "Everything". The band has undergone some changes over the years, with Michael Steele leaving in 2005 and being replaced by Abby Travis for live appearances. They returned to the studio in 2009 to work on a new album which was released in September of 2011.

The current line-up of The Bangles includes Susanna Hoffs on vocals and guitar, Debbi Peterson on vocals, drums, and guitar, Vicki Peterson on vocals and lead guitar, and Annette Zilinskas on bass guitar and harmonica. These talented musicians have been part of the band since its formation or reformation.

The Bangles' music has left a lasting impact on the music industry with their catchy pop-rock sound. With their successful career spanning decades, they continue to captivate audiences with their timeless hits and energetic performances.

Hand-selected by the band members from their personal music archives, Ladies And Gentelmen . . . The Bangles! is a 16-track collection of remastered '80s-era rarities, demos, live recordings and more, including The Bangles' debut single and all of the tracks from their self-titled EP—produced by legendary Ramones/Blondie producer Craig Leon—unavailable since its initial release on vinyl in 1982. Encompassing the very first years of the band's development, from their earliest days as The Bangs to their incarnation as The Bangles, the tracks include performances by The Bangles' founding and current members—Susanna Hoffs, Debbi Peterson, and Vicki Peterson—as well as now-retired bassist Michael Steele, and the band's original bass player Annette Zilinskas. "We're so pleased to give our fans and music lovers alike the chance to enjoy the early fruits of our labor. Some of these tracks have never seen the light of day," states Bangles drummer/singer Debbi Peterson. "We've wanted to make these songs available to a new audience for a long time," adds singer/guitarist Vicki Peterson. "We've thrown in a couple of live tracks, and even some of the first demos, all lovingly collected and re-mastered, so you no longer have to dig out a cassette player to hear them." Singer/guitarist Susanna Hoffs continues, "I feel a very special connection to our early recordings. The garage of my parents' house was our musical laboratory, and we took all the flavors of our favorite bands and mixed up a concoction of jangly guitars, McCartney-inspired bass parts, grooves powered by punk energy, and harmonies galore! These songs and recordings were our musical manifesto—all that mattered and inspired us, fueled by youthful energy, hope and blind ambition."
