THE LAST HURRAH
May 11, 2026 by Jimmy Alvarez
For fans worldwide, L7 recently made an announcement that was anticipated, and falling at the top of their “Shit List.”
The bad news, this will be it for L7. The good news… Donita Sparks, Suzi Gardner, Jennifer Finch, and Demetra Plakas will give us their last hurrah as they announced their final road trip. Dubbed “The Last Hurrah” tour, it will come our way in 2026.
The all-girl band from Los Angeles formed in ’85 and have left an indelible mark on the world of music. Hits “Pretend We’re Dead,” “Mr. Integrity,” “Monster,” “Wargasm,” “Fast and Frightening,” “Shove,” and “Andres” have endeared themselves to punk rock fans that like their music loud, fast, and in their face.
Truth be told, when these punk rock girls put out their 2015 documentary, we thought the final tour would be happening shortly thereafter.
But… the last splash was more than that. It was an ongoing pilgrimage for their fans flocking to all points on the planet where L7 played. As a result, year after year after year we got to see them one more time. Well, it’s official: This will be the last one more time.
The last time I spoke with Sparks, she was so grateful that fans have supported their dreams all these years. The timing just seems right now to go out one more time and play their brand of music for everyone.
The 27-date tour will kick off north of the border in Toronto on June 4th, then will zig-zag throughout the country and wrap up back home in Los Angeles on November 14th at the iconic Wiltern Theatre.
There are bands that make history, L7 is part of history, so go out and see these Sub Pop Super Heroes for their last hurrah. Tickets are on sale now!
