Born on April 15, 1965, in Springfield, MA, Linda Perry spent her youth struggling with kidney disease and then addiction before focusing on music. Growing up in an artistic and musical household, the young Perry displayed a good share of musical talent and interest from an early age. During her teenage years, Perry floundered in school and tried unsuccessfully to form several bands in the San Diego area. A drug problem prevented the singer/guitarist from starting off her career at an early age, but after a few close calls and a move to San Fransisco in the late '80s, she cleaned up and began making some real artistic and professional gains. During this period, Perry discovered and refined her powerful singing voice. Part Grace Slick, part Johnnette Napolitano, but unique in her own right and a little quirky, it didn't take long before Perry's solo performances at various Bay Area nightclubs were attracting the attention of scenesters and fellow musicians. One such musician was Christa Hillhouse, who was in quest of a new lead vocalist for her group 4 Non Blondes. Hillhouse asked Perry to join up with her outfit, which also included Shauna Hall and Wanda Day. Perry agreed to give it a try and it wasn't long before 4 Non Blondes were being courted and eventually signed by Interscope Records. The group's debut, Bigger, Better, Faster, More, was released on Interscope in 1992. After a very slow start sales-wise, the David Tickle-produced album began to break in 1993 when a modern rock disc jockey in Las Vegas began spinning "What's Up?" Interscope then began pushing the song, which had by this time developed a life of its own. A video was produced and MTV took an immediate and prolonged shine it, giving the band massive exposure. As "What's Up?" became a huge international hit, 4 Non Blondes seemed to be everywhere. During a period of about two years, Perry and her bandmates appeared on the Airheads and Wayne's World 2 soundtracks, released two more singles and accompanying videos (for "Spaceman" and "Dear Mr. President"), toured the globe, appeared on Carpenters and Led Zeppelin tribute releases, and finally appeared on Roger Daltrey's televised 50th birthday party, which ended up being their final performance. While working on their follow-up to the six-million-unit-selling Bigger, Better, Faster, More, Perry left the group due to personal problems within the band. After departing 4 Non Blondes, Perry began work on some solo material and formed her own label, Rockstar Records, which later signed Stone Fox and 2 Lane Blacktop. Perry also began a producing and session career by joining Stone Fox in the studio and helping out on former Bangle Susanna Hoffs' self-titled solo disc. Perry herself was joined by the likes of Grace Slick, Lisa Germano, and Sheryl Crow producer Bill Bottrell on In Flight, her 1996 solo debut. Darker, and more dynamic than her work with 4 Non Blondes, Perry came into her own as an artist on this exceptional recording. Released on Interscope, In Flight was perhaps too dour or sincere to capitalize on the alt-pop success of 4 Non Blondes and the record was hardly noticed by critics, radio, or fans. After In Flight, Perry moved to Southern California and continued working on production and film projects, as well as running her label. In 1999, she released her second solo effort, the stripped-down, almost bluesy After Hours. A fine vocalist, writer, and musician, Linda Perry has led a serious and occasionally subversive career, punctuated by her individualism and sense of artistic purpose.

After Hours
The Garden Would you like To slip away into the garden Where mystery flies And magical vines Twist and turn inside your mind It's a blast Here at the ole whimsical gardens Where everyone dreams Grand illusions are freed From the constant poisons that we breathe So tonight, we'll lay in the garden Where we'll bury our souls into the ground Then tonight, we'll pray in the garden Where we'll lift our souls from out of the ground Just relax And we will feast on your emotions Open your mouth and let it come out Every single word will form a phrase Don't refrain Are you so full of so much anger Every stitch on your lip starts to itch Until it all comes pouring out your lids So tonight we'll lay in the garden Where we'll bury our souls into the ground Then tonight we'll pray in the garden And we'll lift our souls from out of the ground Jackie Jackie lives in a trailer park just outside of New York You can catch her there anytime of the day All the boys seem to know her well She's got big brown eyes and ponytails With a smile that will knock you out of the state Sometimes when she's alone at night she likes to open all the blinds Turn the music on and start to dance One by one she takes off her clothes And prances all around the floor While all the boys are peeking over the fence, saying Sweet jackie please, won't you come and dance with me, oh so Sweet jackie please, won't you come and stay the night with me When she's walking down the street It's such a sight oh what a treat As you watch her make 'n her way through the candy store She'll come out sucking on a lollipop Her juicy lips will make you drop As you fall to your knees 'n beg for more, so Sweet jackie please, won't you come and dance with me so Sweet jackie please, won't you come and stay the night with me All the other girls in town don't like it when she comes around 'Cause they know that jackie will steal the show When she walks into a room The place lights up from her sweet perfume Then she'll slowly take your breath right out the door Sunny April Afternoon Today is such a great day to be alive on this sunny April afternoon Wednesday came with many bricks I woke up feeling kind of sick What was a hand is now a fist I'm so tired of wondering In every song I'm struggling Will she find her comforting Like a book you've read on a rainy day I'm the girl without a name The one that's always left off the page But have you seen the Butterfly How it wakes into another life More beautiful as the one that died Today is such a great day to be alive on this sunny April afternoon Today is such a great day to be alive on this sunny April afternoon Have you ever wanted to die 'Cause nothing seemed to go to right Are you contemplating suicide How every thought becomes so vague 'Cause feelings are so hard to say So magically they're swept away Like a wild horse that knows it's free A seasoned flower blossoming That's what I would like to be Yes today is such a great day to be alive on this sunny April afternoon Today is such a great day to be alive on this sunny April afternoon Lost Command Lord I feel I've lost command The ship I've built is crashing from my hands Everything seems so unclear My tattered sails have all but disappeared There was a lightning crash right over me It struck so hard my ship began to sink And just as the sea began to take me down Someone reached right in and rescued me La la la la la la la Stranded so very very long Lately lord I just don't feel too strong See hopeless is carrying me away I'm on my knees begging for today There was a lightning crash right over me It struck so hard my ship began to sink And just as the sea began to take me down Someone reached right in and rescued me Lord hear my prayer, hear my prayer love will rescue me Lord hear my prayer yes I know, I know, I know you'll rescue me When your fear turns to faith, you'll find that you won't feel so alone When your weakness turns to strength, you'll find that your suddenly back home Lord hear my prayer, hear my prayer love will rescue me Lord hear my prayer yes I know, I know, I know you'll rescue me Lord I feel I've lost command The ship I built is crashing from my hands Get It While You Can In early morning I'm still gettin high Counting my penny's like a desperate barfly See me and Jack Daniels stay up wide awake Counting the circles babe that compliment the lines on my face Baby, get it while you can Chasing ole smokey to pacify the shakes When your a loser babe You have to cure the pains and the aches Baby, get it while you can Hell is my heaven the devil stands right by my side There ain't no halo to hang above my life Baby, get it while you can In early morning as I'm sipping wine Will you still love me, baby through rain or shine Baby, get it while you can Bang The Drum One day we'll run away Build a house made of straw and clay Worship every moonlit night As we bang upon the drum Plant seeds to grow the trees That will provide the means To raise a wall of segregation As we bang upon the drum A social enemy has prayed upon thy faith A loss of dignity is getting in thy way Real soon the sand dunes Will blow across every afternoon Blinding us with a grain of salt As we bang upon the drum We'll plant our feet in land Far surpassing machines of man Thanking mother for this revelation As we bang upon the drum A common legacy has graced me with new faith A needle and a thread has woven my new fate One day in the afternoon One day in the afternoon We'll swallow the path we hold Into a river filled with gold Drowning in our wave of hope As we bang upon the drums A social enemy has prayed upon thy faith A loss of dignity is getting in thy way One day in the afternoon One day in the afternoon One day in the afternoon (one day) One day in the afternoon (one day) One day in the afternoon (one day) One day in the afternoon (one day) One day we'll run away Build a house made of straw and clay Worship every moonlit night As we bang upon the drum. Some Days Never End Have you ever wanted to corrupt the whole wide world? 'Cause your sick and tired of watching everyone Stop to smell the roses Everydays a fuckin holiday for you my friend Maybe you would like to share the wealth Or graciously pretend Does anybody really truly know what P.C. means? Maybe its just another way to say Hey we don't like what you are doing Waiting for a big gold medal to fall from out of the sky Awarding you good Samaritan of 1999 Sometimes I'd like to throw a brick or two At all the aggravating fates of doom We'd like to recognize the pains your going through But somedays never seem to end 2-3 Are we sane or have we lost it once again We can only hope this day will come to an end Have you ever wanted to blow up the whole wide world? 'Cause your sick and tired of all the politics That screw you out of rent Waiting to climb up the ladder that shows a better life But it don't include exactly how, which way, when or why Sometimes I'd like to throw a brick or two At all the superficial pricks in the zoo We'd like to recognize the pains your going through But somedays never seem to end 2-3 Are we sane or have we lost it once again We can only hope somedays will never end Are we sane or have we lost it once again We can only hope somedays will never end We'd like to recognize your lack of patience my friend But somedays will never seem to end!
