The Donnas

Punk rock
Punk rockRap

The Donnas is a Punk rock and Rap act. Their sound grew out of Kiss, AC/DC, Bachman–Turner Overdrive, The Von Bondies and Rooney. Those roots explain a lot about how The Donnas arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Sahara Hotnights, The Muffs, Letters to Cleo, Veruca Salt and Joan Jett and the Blackhearts, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Kisschasy, Doll Skin, Maroon 5, Blondie and OK Go, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 42 connections around The Donnas, reaching back through Kiss and forward to Kisschasy.
