Typical Girls: Women in Punk/Post-Punk/Underground Music (Circa 1975-1980s)

[Alex Murray-Leslie <a AT chicksonspeed.com>]

HI Joly,

Thanks for sharing,

We´re currently compiling Girl Monster volume 2 for COSR,
and think WARPAINT would be very interesting.

Does anybody on the list have a connection to warpaint by any chance?

and any one who knows of a very special upcoming band from now
or then, please do reach out and let me know.
