L7+ Death Valley Girls
First Avenue

first-avenue.com
90s rock band L7 announced their first album since 1999, due out in February 2019. You can preorder and grab some autograph rarities via their PledgeMusic Page (unfortunately, all the good stuff are gone).
If you’re not familiar with L7, their name actually is slang for “square” (which means an uncool or out of touch person). They’re probably best known for their song, “Pretend We’re Dead”.
Death Valley Girls, who previously appeared at Desert Daze 2017 will open the show.
The 2018 tour starts today, and will stop by Minneapolis’ First Avenue on April 19th.
