"The Donnas are an American all-female rock band from Palo Alto, California. They draw inspiration from The Ramones, The Runaways, AC/DC, Bachman–Turner Overdrive and Kiss. Rolling Stone has stated that 'the Donnas offer a guileless take on adolescent alienation; they traffic in kicks, not catharsis, fun rather than rage.' MTV has stated that the band offers 'a good old-fashioned rock & roll party.' After gathering a cult following in the punk scene since their 1993 debut, the band achieved major label commercial success in the early 2000s and afterward"
The band is Brett Anderson on vocals, Allison Robertson on guitars, Maya Ford on bass, and Amy Cesari on drums, replacing founding drummer Torry Castellano in 2010.
