Partyline is Allison Wolfe, ex-Bratmobile, and co.'s current band
"Partylines Riot Act
Ex-Bratmobile and Hott Beat grrrls party like it's 1993 at the Boat
Musicians who came of age (and to quick notoriety) through Riot Grrrl seem to be of two minds about the future: persevere through the backlash and become more innovative ( la Sleater Kinney, who finally called it quits after releasing their most widely successful record to date), or overhaul your sound electro-style (Kathleen Hanna's trajectory toward Le Tigre).
Powerhouse Allison Wolfe (ex of Bratmobile, Cold Cold Hearts) is one exception to that rule: she's stayed true to her roots. Her new band, Partyline , headlined a four-band gig at the Boat in Kensington Market Thursday with two Toronto side projects that owe a big debt to the age of 'idolize your grrrlfriend.'"
