Babes In Toyland have reunited after a 18 year hiatus, and the Fontanelle-era lineup of Kat Bjelland, Maureen Herman and Lori Barbero will be playing February 12, 2015 at The Roxy in Los Angeles, CA.
Said Bjelland in a press release:
“It was brought to my attention that not only do we have a lot of diehard fans from back in the day, but also a whole new generation of kids–my son Henry included– that were eager to see us live….I felt some kind of obligation for them to see us, too. But mainly, I just missed my girls and the feeling that comes from playing with them–visceral live therapy.”
Maureen Herman, who originally left the band in 1997, added:
“The first time we played together again,” added bass player Maureen Herman, “we weren’t sure what it would be like. After knocking the hell out of ‘He’s My Thing’ on the first try, we knew this was going to be fun–and it was going to rock like a motherf***er.”
