Brownstein and Weiss were in Sleater-Kinney and toured with Timony’s band Helium on numerous occasions. Brownstein and Timony played in a side project called THE SPELLS. Rebecca Cole’s Portland-based band The Minders was a frequent opener for Sleater-Kinney. Weiss and Cole play together in the 1960’s garage-rock cover band The SHADOW MORTONS. After collaborating on a score for a documentary, the ease with which they worked together proved infectious and promising. Wild Flag was formed.
