The lyric also appears in a piece in Gordon's 2013 art show—a survey of her work since 1980—at New York's White Columns gallery.[5] ContentGirl in a Band describes Gordon's life from her childhood—first in Rochester, New York, then Los Angeles—through the founding and trajectory of Sonic Youth, her marriage of nearly three decades to bandmate Thurston Moore, and the ultimate dissolution of both their marriage and the band. ReceptionThe memoir received strongly favorable reviews. In The New York Times, Questlove praised the book's "careful introspection, detail and real feeling," noting that even when the many celebrities in Gordon's life appear in the narrative, "it never feels forced or showy. She’s clear on how the people around served her as artistic inspirations, sparking her ideas and giving her the confidence to express herself."[6] In NME, Leonie Cooper noted, "Gossip about the breakdown of both her marriage and Sonic Youth will draw many to Gordon's book. But she overrides it wonderfully, handling both with resigned simplicity and finding catharsis through the art she cherishes and a performance with an all-female line-up at Nirvana's 2014 induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. So much more than a rock biog, Girl In A Band is a unique record of the past 50 years of alternative culture."[7] References1. ^{{cite news|url=http://www.chicagotribune.com/lifestyles/books/ct-prj-kim-gordon-girl-in-a-band-20150212-column.html#page=1|title=Kim Gordon on her new memoir, 'Girl in a Band'|first=Greg|date=12 February 2015|archive-url=|archive-date=|dead-url=|access-date=July 26, 2017|author=Kot|work=Chicago Tribune}} 2. ^{{cite news|title=GIRL IN A BAND by Kim Gordon|url=https://www.kirkusreviews.com/book-reviews/kim-gordon/girl-in-a-band/|accessdate=30 July 2017|work=Kirkus Reviews|date=November 20, 2014|language=en-us}} 3. ^{{Cite news|url=https://newrepublic.com/article/120936/kim-gordon-girl-band-review-when-riot-grrl-grows|title=Even Kim Gordon Doesn't Have It All|last=Friedman|first=Ann|date=February 4, 2015|work=New Republic|access-date=2017-07-27|archive-url=|archive-date=|dead-url=|language=en-US}} 4. ^{{Cite news|url=http://www.slate.com/articles/arts/books/2015/03/kim_gordon_s_memoir_girl_in_a_band_reviewed.html|title="It Was All Unknown and Possibility"|last=Dayal|first=Geeta|date=2015-03-04|work=Slate|access-date=2017-07-27|language=en-US|issn=1091-2339}} 5. ^{{cite news|url=http://pitchfork.com/news/56998-kim-gordons-memoir-girl-in-a-band-to-be-published-in-february-cover-art-revealed/|title=Kim Gordon's Memoir Girl in a Band to Be Published in February, Cover Art Revealed|last=Pelly|first=Jenn|date=October 8, 2014|archive-url=|archive-date=|dead-url=|access-date=July 26, 2017|work=Pitchfork}} 6. ^{{cite news|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2015/03/15/books/review/kim-gordons-girl-in-a-band.html|title=Kim Gordon’s ‘Girl in a Band’|last=Questlove|first=|date=10 March 2015|archive-url=|archive-date=|dead-url=|access-date=July 27, 2017|work=The New York Times}} 7. ^{{cite news|url=http://www.nme.com/reviews/kim-gordon/15923|title=Kim Gordon - Girl In A Band|first=Leonie|date=February 6, 2015|work=NME|access-date=|archive-url=|archive-date=|dead-url=|author=Cooper}} External links
