It’s always a thrill to reconnect with fans who’ve followed L7’s journey since the early days, and Olympia promises to deliver that electric vibe only the Pacific Northwest can provide. If you’re anywhere near Washington this summer, don’t miss your chance to join the party — see you in the pit.

  • A Strange Night Behind The Orange Curtain In July

    A Strange Night Behind The Orange Curtain In July

    If you told me that one day, L7 would share a bill with Lee Ving and a band from Tijuana called Hong Kong Fuck You, I’d probably have laughed you out of the room. But here we are—One Strange Night in Orange County—a wild, one-day blowout in Santa Ana with a lineup that looks like a chaotic mixtape spanning decades of punk music. And it’s in its second installment! L7’s honored to be one of the older guard on this bill, alongside the iconic FEAR, whom I saw and shot in the Hollywood punk scene’s salad days.

    This event is more like a generational fist bump. You’ve got bands like local weirdos The Garden, Rohnert Park’s heavy hitters Ceremony, Detroit’s own electro-punks Snow Strippers, and the blast beats of Hong Kong Fuck You bringing their spin to punk’s ever-mutating DNA, while FEAR and L7 come in hot with our bruises, battle jackets, and loud-ass amps. I love that there’s no weird divide—just an all-out celebration of what happens when guitars get loud, drums get faster, and people decide they’ve had enough of sitting still. Punk never belonged to one era—it’s a living organism that keeps regenerating, even if it occasionally throws up on itself. Did I mention this is an all-ages event?

    I can’t wait to hit Observatory and tear the roof off this thing! Whether you’re new to the pit or have been circle dancing since before cell phones, get sweaty with us! It’s gonna be loud, it’s gonna be weird, and it’s gonna be one hell of a strange night—in the best way possible. TICKETS ARE AVAILABLE HERE.

  • Motoblot x L7: Bringing the Noise Back to Chicagoland on June 28th!

    Motoblot x L7: Bringing the Noise Back to Chicagoland on June 28th!

    Next month, L7 returns to the Midwest to tear up the stage along the Chicago riverfront at Motoblot Festival with our friends Face to Face, Olivia Jean, The Darts, and tons more. This city has a special place in our heart with our history, and we always deliver to one of the most electric crowds in the country. They really give us so much whenever we touchdown, and it’s a HUGE reason why it’s so special to always come back!

    L7’s History In Chicago

    Now, let me take you back for a sec (alright….longer than that)—L7 has played many Chicago stages. The city has always had a unique vibe since we were just a bunch of kids trying to make noise in the bigger venues. It’s the home of some of the most die-hard fans who’ve stood by us, and we always felt like we were playing for people who get it. Whether it’s at Metro, Aragon Ballroom, or the House of Blues, we’ve had some unforgettable moments there—and you know we’re about to add another one to that list at The Salt Shed. The full lineup for each night is available here.

    L7 Live In West Town

    Motoblot isn’t just any festival—it’s a celebration of rock ‘n’ roll, punk, DIY, bikes, and the garage culture we love. This lineup is stacked, and we can’t wait to get in there, rev up the crowd, and let loose. It’s all about energy, noise, and unapologetic fun, and trust me, we’ll be bringing it all. If you’ve seen us play in Chicago before, you know the drill—expect loud guitars, sweat dripping, and a room full of people losing their minds. If you haven’t… well, now’s your chance to experience it! TICKETS ARE AVAILABLE HERE.

  • 2024 Year in Revue!

    2024 Year in Revue!

    From sweaty rehearsal rooms to wild nights on the road, from DIY spaces to (not so DIY stages)—2024 was a year I won’t forget. I threw myself into new projects, crossed paths with some incredible humans, played packed festivals and clubs, and pushed myself creatively in ways I didn’t see coming. Now that the dust has settled (kind of), I’m looking back at the highlights, the surprises, and the moments that made it all worth it. Whether you’ve been along for the ride or just tuning in, here’s a peek behind the scenes at what made this year so damn special. – Jennifer Finch
