Contents
Life and Career[edit]
Childhood[edit]
Born in Portland, Oregon, Kathleen Hanna's family moved to Calverton, Maryland in 1971. This was followed by a series of moves due to her father changing occupations, which continued until Hanna's parents got a divorce while she was in high school. Hanna first became interested in feminism around the age of nine, after her mother took her to a rally in Washington D.C. where feminist icon Gloria Steinem spoke. Though it would be several years until she would become the outspoken feminist she is today, the event clearly left an impression on Hanna. In a 2000 interview with BUST magazine, Hanna recalled:
College[edit]
Hanna attended The Evergreen State College in Olympia, Washington in the late 1980s, where she studied photography. Determined to support herself, Hanna began working as a burlesque dancer during this time. She also participated in the burgeoning art scene in Olympia during these years, doing spoken-word performances which addressed sexism and violence against women, issues which she witnessed daily as she became involved with a domestic violence organization over the next two years.
Working with fellow Evergreen student and photographer Aaron Baush-Greene, Hanna set up a photo show featuring the pair's photography, which dealt with, respectively, sexism and AIDS. However, the school administrators took the photos down before they got the chance to be viewed, an act of censorship which prompted what Hanna refers to as her "first forray into activism"--- the creation of an independent feminist art gallery called Reko Muse with friends Heidi Arbogast and Tammy Rae Carland. The three women then formed a band called Amy Carter, which put on shows before the art exhibitions.[2]
Hanna later started another band, Viva Knievel, which toured the United States for two months before disbanding. Upon returning to Olympia, Hanna began collaborating with fellow Evergreen student and punk zinester Tobi Vail after seeing a performance of The Go Team, (a band made up of Vail, Billy Karren, and Calvin Johnson) and recognizing Vail as the mastermind behind the fanzine Jigsaw, which Hanna greatly admired.
Bikini Kill[edit]
Hanna and Tobi Vail's first collaboration was a zine called Revolution Girl Style Now. This lead to a later zine titled Bikini Kill, a response to sexism in the punk rock scene, written with fellow Evergreen student and friend Kathi Wilcox. The three women decided to form a band to personify their ideals and recruited Vail’s bandmate Karren as the fourth member, naming the band after their zine.
Bikini Kill soon became part of the seminal Olympia, Washington music scene of the early 1990’s, which was characterized by political awareness, a strong artistic do-it-yourself ethic, and an emphasis on local collaboration and support.
The band's first release for the Kill Rock Stars label was a self-titled EP produced by Ian MacKaye of Fugazi. Bikini Kill then toured the UK, recording a split LP with UK band Huggy Bear. This tour was filmed and the band was interviewed by Lucy Thane for her documentary, It Changed My Life: Bikini Kill In The UK. Upon returning to the U.S., the band began working with Joan Jett, who produced their single, "New Radio/Rebel Girl". After the release of this record, Kathleen began co-writing some songs with Joan for her new album.
At the same time Kathleen produced several solo pieces for the Kill Rock Stars "Wordcore" series of recordings, including the 7" single "Rockstar" and the song "I Wish I Was Him" (a Ben Lee cover about alternative rock heartthrob Evan Dando) on the KRS compilation Rock Stars Kill. She was also in the band Suture with Sharon Cheslow and Dug E. Bird.
The first two Bikini Kill EPs were released on CD as the imaginatively titled The CD Version of the First Two Records in 1992. The band released two more full-length albums, Pussy Whipped in 1994 and Reject All American in 1996, and in 1998, Kill Rock Stars released Bikini Kill: The Singles, a collection of the group's seven inch and compilation tracks. Bikini Kill broke up on friendly terms around April 1998.
Influence on Riot Grrrl[edit]
In 1991, the band spent a summer in Washington, D.C., where Hanna began collaborating with Allison Wolfe and Molly Neuman from the band Bratmobile on the zine riot grrrl, which became a call to action for increased feminist activity and female involvement in the punk rock scene. In a 2000 interview with Index Magazine, Hanna relates:
Bikini Kill, Bratmobile, and zines like Jigsaw and Girl Germs helped define the movement that came to be called Riot Grrrl.
Between bands[edit]
Post-Bikini Kill, Hanna moved to Durham, North Carolina, home of Mr. Lady records, which was run by her close friend Tammy Rae Carland. Hanna began a series of projects, the first of which was The Fakes, in which she enlisted the help of Rachel Carns of The Need. The resulting CD, Real Fiction was released on Chainsaw Records.
Her next project, Julie Ruin was a sampler-driven lo-fi electronic project recorded in the closet of Hanna's Olympia apartment using only a sampler, a drum machine and an 8-track recorder. It was released on the Kill Rock Stars label.
Le Tigre[edit]
In Portland, Oregon Hanna began working with friend and zine editor Johanna Fateman on a live show for Julie Ruin. The collaboration eventually resulted in the two briefly forming a band called The Troublemakers, named after a G.B. Jones film, which ended when Fateman relocated to New York City to attend art school.
However, Hanna soon joined Fateman on the East Coast and with the addition of filmmaker Sadie Benning, they started another band, this time called Le Tigre. This band continued to pursue a more electronic style of music similar to the sampler-driven sound Hanna had begun to explore with Julie Ruin. The band began recording records for the Mr. Lady Records label, the first being the self-titled Le Tigre, which included the single "Hot Topic" and "Deceptacon." After the first record, Sadie Benning left the band and JD Samson joined before the follow-up CD Feminist Sweepstakes was released. When Mr. Lady Records closed down, the group switched labels to Universal Records for the 2004 release of This Island. They also released two remixed albums before breaking up in January of 2007.
Personal[edit]
In the summer of 2006, Hanna married Adam Horovitz, better known as King Ad-Rock of the legendary hip hop group the Beastie Boys.
She was once involved with Dave Grohl of the Foo Fighters and Nirvana.
Quotes[edit]
- "Art revolves around creating something that isn’t there." ---Under the Radar, Issue 7[3]
- "You learn that the only way to get rock-star power as a girl is to be a groupie and bare your breasts and get chosen for the night. We learn that the only way to get anywhere is through men. And it's a lie."--- Ms. Magazine, 2000
- "I always thought Bikini Kill had a good sense of humor, too. I think the stereotype about feminists having no sense of humor played into that whole mythology that we weren't a fun band and we weren't fun people and our music didn't have a lot of humor in it. If you go back and listen to it, I'm doing all these characters and I'm being sarcastic and mocking different forms of masculinity that are obnoxious. I don't know. It seems like a laugh riot to me." --- 2004 Interview[4]
- "If your best friend gets it, that's all that matters."[5]
- "We live in a world that tells us we must choose an identity, a career, a relationship, and to commit to these situations...as if we know what's gonna happen tomorrow, as if we aren't ever gonna change, as if we don't live in a world of constant flux, which we do." --- Jigsaw Fanzine, #4
- "Don't freak out cuz the jigsaw is laying on the floor and it's not all the way done and has been laying there for 4 whole hours now, resist the freak out. You will get to it..it's all part of the process."--- Jigsaw Fanzine, #4[6]
- "I don't need to convince men that feminism is important, that just isn't a goal of mine. I can't even have that conversation, of whether or not it's important, because if someone asks me that they're my mortal enemy and I don't want to have a conversation with them until they grow-up." --- Glasgow Women's Library, 2000[7]
- "I love the part of music, that it can take you over and you can trust it…I want to make music that, when women listen to it, they can be inside themselves again. To make dance music is even better, because then they can be dancing together, with other women feeling inside of themselves." ---Verve, 2001[8]
Trivia[edit]
- The name for Nirvana's hit song "Smells Like Teen Spirit" was inspired by Kathleen's spray painting “Kurt smells like Teen Spirit†on one of Kurt Cobain's walls. Cobain and Tobi Vail were dating at that time, and Vail wore Teen Spirit deodorant.
- She cites Times Square, Ladies and Gentlemen, The Fabulous Stains, Over the Edge, Poison, Born in Flames and The Boys in the Band as some of her favorite movies.[9]
- In 2004, she provided the vocal track for the opening of the song "Letterbomb" on Green Day's American Idiot.
- She was mentioned recently in an episode of The L Word. A group of friends are playing celebrity at a dinner party, when the character Shane selects her name. Most of the lesbians seem to know it's her from the description, "Le Tigre, and Julie Ruin, Bikini Kill", yet the straight people at the party have no clue who she is. This results in the character of Alice joking, "Oh, she just pretty much started the whole riot grrrl music scene, but hey...", which leaves one straight man asking, "What's the riot grrrl music scene?" This is an allusion to Hanna's cult-following within the queer community.[11]
- The Pinhead Gunpowder song "Kathleen" was written about her.
- She was punched by Courtney Love backstage during the Lollapalooza tour on 4 July 1995, after Kathleen apparently joked whether Frances Bean, then a toddler, was in another room with an I.V., referring of course to the fact that Courtney was known for having taken several dangerous narcotics while pregnant, including a "small amount" of heroin. It's worth noting that Kathleen, as well as Tobi Vail who dated and served as a musical-inspiration to him for years, knew Kurt Cobain and his band years before he met Courtney. Hanna pressed charges, and Love pleaded guilty to assault. Courtney has a history of attacking friends of Kurt from his days in the Olympia indie-punk scene, including Calvin Johnson, Mary Lou Lord, and even Kurt's mother Wendy O'Connor.[12]
- Kathleen was in the music video for Sonic Youth's song "Bull in the Heather".
- Kathleen participated in a video series by Kill Rock Stars spoken word artist Juliana Luecking in which she answered questions such as "What Does God Look Like?" and "What Kind of Music Do You Like?"[13]
