Susanna Hoffs catapulted to stardom as part of the Bangles, the power poppers who rose from Los Angeles's Paisley Underground and into the Top 40 with "Manic Monday," a Prince song that Hoffs sang for the group. Hoffs sang the lion's share of the Bangles' big hits, positioning herself nicely for the solo career she launched with the 1991 release of When You're a Boy. Neither When You're a Boy nor its eponymous 1996 successor was a commercial success, so Hoffs returned to the guitar pop she loved best, first reuniting with the Bangles for 2003's Doll Revolution then cutting a series of covers albums with Matthew Sweet in the 2000s and 2010s. By the 2020s, Hoffs resumed a solo career with Bright Lights and The Deep End, a pair of records where she covered some of her favorite songwriters.
