American rock band the Linda Lindas have recorded songs for one studio album, two extended plays (EPs), multiple singles, and other album appearances. The band consists of guitarist Lucia de la Garza, drummer Mila de la Garza, guitarist Bela Salazar and bassist Eloise Wong.[1] Along with their main catalog, the Linda Lindas have appeared on one cover,[2] one remix,[3] and one tribute album,[4] as well as soundtracks.[5][6] Among the songs, eight are covers, and most were produced by Carlos de la Garza, the father of band members Lucia and Mila.[7]

The Linda Lindas formed in 2018, and started out as a cover band, playing music from bands such as Le Tigre and the Go-Go's, whose "Tonite" they later released a cover of.[8][5] The band released their debut single, "Claudia Kishi", independently in 2020,[9] followed by the EP The Linda Lindas.[10] In 2021, the band went viral with a performance of "Racist, Sexist Boy" and subsequently signed with the Los Angeles-based label Epitaph Records.[11] They released another EP, Moxie (Music from the Netflix Film),[12] which contains covers of Bikini Kill's "Rebel Girl" and the Muffs' "Big Mouth" that appeared in the Netflix film Moxie.[13] The Linda Lindas released their debut album, entitled Growing Up, in 2022. Four singles were released from the album: "Oh!", "Nino", "Growing Up", and "Talking to Myself". On the deluxe edition of the album, the band covered the Blue Hearts' song "Linda Linda",[14][15] for which the band was named.[13] Growing Up is centered on themes of growing up, discovering oneself,[16] and anxieties that arise in adolescence.[17] The album's genre has been classified as punk rock, pop-punk,[17] and power pop.[18] From the album, "Cuántas Veces" has been noted for its bossa nova influences[7] and "Racist, Sexist Boy" has often been compared to the riot grrrl sound.[a]

Their second album, No Obligation, is set to be released in 2024.[23] Three of its songs have been released as singles: "Too Many Things", "Resolution/Revolution", and "All In My Head". In a press release, the Linda Lindas said they would be experimenting with post-punk, garage rock, power pop, new wave, and rock en español on the album.[24]
