Raveonettes

Since 2001, the Danish duo of Sune Rose Wagner and Sharin Foo have performed as The Raveonettes, merging girl-group-inspired vocal harmonies and surfy riffing with economic proto-rock, then adding feedback and menace.

Vocalist/guitarist Wagner and vocalist/bassist Foo met in Copenhagen after Wagner had tried to find like-minded musicians in the United States.

The Raveonettes—Wagner and Foo as well as guitarist Manoj Ramdas and drummer Jakob Hoyer—debuted with the 2002 mini-album Whip It On, a collection of short, sharp tracks written in B-flat minor that included the horror-movie-inspired “Attack of the Ghost Riders”; their first full-length, Chain Gang of Love, lightened the mood, with its songs, including the triumphant “That Great Love Sound,” being written in B-flat major.
