The Widows

Garage punk band formed in 2005 in the San Diego suburb of Lemon Grove, California by singer/guitarist Aaron Pores (ex-Mannekin Piss), guitarist/backing singer Max Bristol (owner of Flapping Jet Records), bassist/backing singer Chris Bieck, and drummer Cody Young. Between 2007 and 2014 they released three albums on small local labels, starting with 2007's Point Despair and 2009's Critical Massacre. By 2014's San Diego Calling Collect...Will You Accept The Charges?, Young had been replaced by Matt Yansch. Yansch was replaced by Danielle Cobb in late 2017, and the band released a new single in 2020.
