New Q+A out now with Made in PGH 🖤

Erika sat down with Josh McCann to talk all things WB - from writing about heartbreak, letting things fall apart (so something better can bloom), opening for Jefferson Starship, and the power of giant light-up wings (what happens in the wing cocoon stays in the wing cocoon!) 🦋✨

Most importantly, we’re in writing mode now, building what’s next 👀

If you’ve been following along, or want a peek into our lil world, go check it out.

And come see it live:
4/27 – Jergel's Rhythm Grille (opening for Babes Against The Machine - The World’s ONLY All-Female Tribute to RATM )
5/1 – Poetry Lounge (with Evan Dean Band + Nino Albanese Trio)

🎁 IT'S A CHRISTMAS MIRACLE!!! 🎁
The FULL Working Breed No Doubt show is finally here.

What started as a dream in 2020 became one of the most joyful, wild, sing-at-the-top-of-your-lungs nights of our lives this year — and today, we get to give it back to you. Whether you were in the room screaming every lyric or you’re discovering it for the first time, this is our holiday gift to you.

From deep cuts to shenanigans to that legendary finale… this show was made with so much love for No Doubt, for each other, and for every fan who showed up (sometimes five years later!!) to make it real.

So pour something festive, turn it up loud, and relive the magic with us.
We hope it brings you the same radical joy it brought us. 💖
