About the Book

Before they were The Bangles, they were The Bangs-an ambitious group of women navigating the vibrant, gritty music scene of 1980s Los Angeles. But a simple name change would set them on a path to becoming one of the most iconic all-female bands in rock history. This is the untold story of how a small tweak ignited a seismic shift, catapulting them from local darlings to international superstars. From The Bangs to The Bangles delves into the pivotal moment that redefined their destiny. With unprecedented access to band members Susanna Hoffs, Debbi Peterson, and Vicki Peterson, this compelling account unravels how changing a single word unlocked doors they never imagined-leading to chart-topping hits like "Walk Like an Egyptian," "Manic Monday," and "Eternal Flame." Discover how the name change was more than a legal necessity-it became a catalyst for creative evolution and bold reinvention. Journey behind the scenes as The Bangles defied industry norms, battled sexism, and fought for creative control while navigating the pressures of fame and the complexities of friendship. Through candid interviews, never-before-seen personal anecdotes, and exclusive insights, From The Bangs to The Bangles reveals the struggles, sacrifices, and sisterhood that powered their rise to the top. Experience the highs and lows, the laughter and tears, and the unbreakable bond that transformed The Bangles into feminist trailblazers and rock legends. Whether you're a lifelong fan or new to their story, this gripping biography uncovers the truth behind the music and celebrates the legacy of a band that changed the face of rock 'n' roll forever.
