Formed in 1979 - after a chance meeting between Teresa Covarrubias and Rudy Medina at The Starwood in Hollywood - The Brat fell into the
mesh of punk artists and musicians straddling both sides of the East L.A./ West L.A. pop world. They made quick friends with Plugz guitarist Tito
Larriva and X singer Exene Cervenka, both instrumental in the look and sound of The Brat’s debut EP, “Attitudes”.
Produced by Tito, with cover art/lettering by Exene, “Attitudes” found its 5 songs gathering healthy airplay at KROQ and other hip L.A. radio
stations. « hide |
