Sparks also initiated, performed, and released original material with her solo project, the band Donita Sparks and The Stellar Moments.[1] CareerSparks was raised in Chicago in a family that regularly participated in political actions. Donita Sparks worked as a foot messenger in downtown Chicago prior to moving to Los Angeles at the age of 19. Donita Sparks met Suzi Gardner in 1984 and they formed the creative foundation of L7 by 1985. Sparks and Gardner had both worked at LA Weekly and were active participants in the art punk DIY scene in the Echo Park/Silver Lake area when they began writing music together.[2] Recognized for subverting and transcending the expectations of performers in the late 80s and early 90s, L7 produced six original studio albums between 1985 and 2001.[3][4] Donita's work has been featured in films such as Natural Born Killers, Brokeback Mountain, Perks of Being a Wildflower and video games such as San Andreas and Rock Band 2.[5] In 1994, Sparks appeared in the John Waters film Serial Mom as a musician and performer in the fictitious band "Camel Lips." Sparks released her debut solo record Transmiticate as Donita Sparks and the Stellar Moments in February 2008. Sparks is also the drummer for the Lou Reed tribute band, Lou Man Group.[6] L7 reformed in 2015 and embarked on a reunion tour.[1][4][7] The documentary L7: Pretend We're Dead, directed by Sarah Price, features original footage and interviews with Donita Sparks and was released November, 2016.[8] The film was nominated for a VO5 NME Award for Best Music Film.[9]Sparks continues to perform live shows with the original line up of L7 and has co-written two new songs with Suzi Gardner: Dispatch from Mar-a-Lago, 2017 and I Came Back to Bitch, 2018.[10] PhilanthropySparks and L7 formed Rock for Choice with the Feminist Majority Foundation in 1991, staging numerous concerts featuring some of the biggest bands in the industry benefiting pro-choice organizations.[11] Notable stage momentsWhile L7 was performing at the Reading Festival in 1992, their speakers blew out. The crowd became restless and relentlessly threw mud onto the stage, pelting the band. In response, Sparks reached into her pants and threw her tampon back at the crowd, and yelled "Eat my used tampon, fuckers!" The tampon is known as one of the "most unsanitary pieces of rock memorabilia in history".[12] Later in 1992, Sparks dropped her pants, appearing bottomless, on live television during an L7 performance on the UK variety show The Word.[13] DiscographyL7
