  The Donnas

Rock

The story of The Donnas starts with four families moving from Palo Alto, a city just south of San Fransisco. Donna C. and Donna R. met in fourth grade where they became best friends. In fifth grade, they were introduced to Donna F. and though they weren't a team yet, the performance bug bit them while on a field trip to Hawaii for a hula dancing showcase at the Ploynesian Centre. Donna A. came into the mix in the eighth grade and the rock and roll party began. First they were Raggedy Anne, ripping it up at the school talent show at age 14, covering songs by Shonen Knife, The Muffs and L7. Then they were The Electrocutes, a punk rock riot girl influenced foursome. They would practice in Donna C.'s garage, and boys from their school would come by to watch and openly insult their band. They were always unpopular in school. Finally, they became The Donnas, with help of Darrin Raffaelli, who had written some songs which they recorded for his label, Super*Teem Records. The Donnas put out a full length and three 7"s on Super*teem, all of which are now out-of-print, highly collectible items. By the time 1999 rolled around, The Donnas wre recording their third full length studio album, Get Skintight, an album completely written by The Donnas, except for their Motley Crue cover, "Too Fast for Love." Their metal influenced arena rock sound has brought them glory, fame and fortune. Mega rockstardom is next on The Donnas four point plan for conquering your heart.
