The Brat
The Brat was a Chicano punk rock ensemble originating from the barrios of East Los Angeles, California. Its three core members were lead singer Teresa Covarrubias, lead guitarist Rudy Medina, and alternate lead and rhythm guitarist Sidney Medina. From their conception in late 1978 to their eventual break-up in 1985, The Brat contributed to the customization and intermeshing of multiple musical and cultural models that culminated in the distinct East Los Angeles, Chicano punk sound. Along with being pioneers in the East Los Angeles punk movement, they are best known for their five song EP Attitudes, released in 1980 through the independent label Fatima Records, while contributing to the understanding of the many ways culture transforms and challenges dominant hegemonic ideologies.
