Born out of the post-punk UK rock scene, the Furs quickly developed as one of the premiere bands on US College and Modern Rock radio scoring a multitude of #1 singles. With the advent of MTV in the early 80's the band took off into the stratosphere, and when John Hughes' approached the band with his film built around the Furs' song "Pretty In Pink", the band's legacy was cemented. After a brief hiatus in the 90's, and a side project called "Love Spit Love", the band regrouped at the dawn of the new millennium.

X were the quintessential L.A. punk rockers before they grew into a world-class rock & roll band and live band; enthusiasm for their unique, intelligent and humorous work remains as they bring the show to The Independent for two nights.
