In a recent interview Velocity Girl said that members of The Linda Lindas came up to them and told them “their father had played Velocity Girl for them when they were little kids”. That alone is a reason to love The Linda Lindas. There is of course their awesome name too. And, not unimportant, the music. Catchy pop punk with a lot of young energy – the band members are between 16 and 21 and they’ve been playing for years – and multilingual lyrics that appears to have given them a lot of praise (including some prominent TV appearances). They deserve it.
