\u2018Rebel Girl\u2019 <\/strong><\/a>book pre-order link<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hanna\u2019s band Bikini Kill embodied the punk scene of the 90s, and today her personal yet feminist lyrics on anthems like \u201cRebel Girl\u201d and \u201cDouble Dare Ya\u201d are more powerful than ever. But where did this transformative voice come from?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In \u2018Rebel Girl,\u2019 Hanna\u2019s raw and insightful new memoir, she takes us from her tumul\u00adtuous childhood to her formative college years and her first shows. As Hanna makes clear, being in a punk \u201cgirl band\u201d in those years was not a simple or safe prospect. Male violence and antagonism threatened at every turn, and surviving as a singer who was a lightning rod for controversy took limitless amounts of determination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But the relationships she developed during those years buoyed her, including with her bandmates Tobi Vail, Kathi Wilcox, JD Samson, and Johanna Fateman. And her friendships with musicians like Kurt Cobain, Ian MacKaye, Kim Gordon, and Joan Jett reminded her that despite the odds, the punk world could still nurture and care for its own. Hanna opens up about falling in love with Ad-Rock of the Beastie Boys and her debilitating battle with Lyme disease, and she brings us behind the scenes of her musical growth in her bands Le Tigre and The Julie Ruin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In an uncut voice all her own, Hanna reveals the hardest times along with the most joyful\u2014and how they continue to fuel her revolutionary art and music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
