Susanna Hoffs in Concert

Join us for an intimate performance with singer and songwriter Susanna Hoffs. Best known as co-founder of The Bangles, one of the most acclaimed bands of the '80s (“Eternal Flame,” “Walk Like an Egyptian,” “Manic Monday”), Hoffs' music is imbued with a love of ‘60s music. Enjoy a late-summer night listening to one of the most admired voices in pop. This event is presented in partnership with the Old Town School of Folk Music. Boasting one of pop's most beloved voices, Susanna Hoffs was born and raised in Los Angeles with an ever-present soundtrack of '60s music. She loved to sing and play guitar, going on to study dance and art in college. Stirred by punk and new wave, Susanna started her first band with David Roback (Mazzy Star) while at UC Berkeley, and co-founded The Bangles, a seminal band of the ’80s with a string of hits from three platinum-selling albums, including “Eternal Flame” and “In Your Room,” both co-written by Hoffs. Her solo career began in 1991, and she has released Under the Covers, her acclaimed three-volume album series with Matthew Sweet. Her on screen credits include Austin Powers, in the band Ming Tea. Susanna’s latest albums include the archival release The Lost Record, The Deep End produced by Peter Asher, and Bright Lights. Her next solo album will be released in 2026. Susanna’s debut novel This Bird Has Flown (Little, Brown) has been hailed by The New York Times as the “smart, ferocious rock-star redemption romance you didn’t know you needed.”
