Nicole Alvarez caught up with The Linda Lindas at the DTS Xperience House in Venice Beach after their stripped-down performance of their song "Missing You," which you can see above.
The all-girl band is made up of Bela Salazar, Eloise Wong, Lucia de la Garza, and Mila de la Garza and have garnered support from a number of artists including Paramore's Hayley Williams, Tom Morello, Flea, and many more. They first gained notoriety from their viral performance of "Racist, Sexist Boy" - a song about a racist encounter their drummer had prior to COVID-19. “A little while before we went into lockdown, a boy in my class came up to me and said that his dad told him to stay away from Chinese people,” Mila said. “After I told him that I was Chinese, he backed away from me. Eloise and I wrote this song based on that experience.”
The band was recently signed by Epitaph Records and released their first single "Oh!" which you can experience below.
