Jane No (Cheap Perfume - guitar/co-vocals)

SPB: How has the band’s mission or message evolved since when you first formed?

Jane No: When we started, our focus was feminist rage, calling out sexism and celebrating women’s power. That’s still who we are, but over time we’ve zoomed out to see how all systems of oppression are connected. Our newest songs focus on capitalism as the root cause of most problems, class inequality, and the ways patriarchy and white supremacy harm everyone, especially marginalized communities.
