Early San Francisco punk band formed in 1977 by Jeff Olener, Alejandro Escovedo and Jennifer Miro. They gained popularity opening concerts for both The Sex Pistols and The Damned in the States. They disbanded in 1980, but reunited shortly after to record their self-titled debut LP for Posh Boy, which contained re-recordings of many of their earlier songs . The band split and reformed several times again in the following years, sporadically releasing new material. Jennifer Miro (under her real name Jennifer Anderson) reformed the band in the 2000s, moving towards a more goth rock sound.
