        All Music Guide:

        15 years after co-founding Sleater-Kinney, riot grrrl Corin Tucker found herself playing a benefit show in Portland, OR, where she sprinkled several new songs into her solo set. After the show, Tucker -- who’d been on hiatus with Sleater-Kinney since 2006 -- decided to turn those new songs into an album.

The resulting album, 1,000 Years, was released in 2010.

        In Praise of Moms Who Rock

        By Tobi Vail, eMusic Contributor

        I grew up with a rock 'n' roll mama. Even though my dad was the one who played in bands, it was my mom who saw the Beatles (twice!) and the Rolling Stones and Miles Davis, and it was my mom who woke us up in the middle of the night to teach us how to pogo after going to see the Specials in 1981. And so I've always had a special admiration for women… more »
