Hold up. Stop the presses! You are NOT going to believe this one. A legendary band, gone from the scene for longer than some of our interns have been alive, just CAME BACK.
Heavens to Betsy, the iconic pre-Sleater-Kinney punk powerhouse featuring none other than Corin Tucker, just blew the roof off a secret show last night in Portland. Think about it: thirty-two years! That's like, ancient history in band years. And now they're here, ready to reclaim their crown.
For those who don't know (and you should!), Heavens to Betsy was a HUGE deal. Before Sleater-Kinney was even a twinkle in anyone's eye, Corin Tucker and Tracy Sawyer were tearing it up, setting the stage for a whole movement. They were raw, they were real, and they were unapologetically fierce. Their influence still ripples across the music scene today.

The rumors started swirling earlier in the week, whispers of a reunion, but no one actually believed it. Then, BAM! They took the stage in Portland, shocking everyone. The internet, as you can imagine, absolutely EXPLODED.
