THE COUNTRY ISSUE IS OUT NOW!

PEARL SPURNS SPANDEX

Pearl Harbor and the Explosions are fronted by lead vocalist Pearl E. Gates, a San Franciscan whose prior experience includes a stint in Leila and the Snakes, a West Coast off-shoot of the Tubes. Pearl grew up in Germany, has a Filipino mother and likes country music; naturally, she’s chosen a career in rock ’n’ roll.
