SadGirl is an alternative rock/surf band from Los Angeles, CA, United States. "There's an enclave of the punk world where the music still sounds like an austere distillation of America’s forlorn dream. It’s the sound of an old jukebox spinning a Ronettes 45 through a broken speaker, the kid in the garage figuring out the 1-4-5 progression on guitar, the thump of the kick drum banging in 4/4 time through a dilapidated PA. LA's SadGirl sound a lot those early American punks—the miscreants that preceded the nihilists.
