Can you name this band and track from the '90s punk rock outfit out of Whittier, California (a suburb of Los Angeles)?

Bonus points if you can name the lady in the audience with the mohawk ! She fronted an all-female trio that once served as the backup band for Nina Hagen.

"Our Lips Are Sealed" holds a special spot in 1980s new wave history: co-written by Jane Wiedlin (The Go-Go's) and Terry Hall (The Specials), it became a major hit for both The Go-Go's and Hall's next band, Fun Boy Three, with totally contrasting musical arrangements.

The Specials “You’re Wondering Now” 1979

The ultimate sign-off from ska royalty. Broadcast live by the BBC from Colchester Institute, Terry Hall and company turn a vintage Studio One composition into an immortal 2-Tone anthem...!

When the coffee shop venue owner is also the guitarist for Suicidal Tendencies, you don't just order an espresso, you invite him up to play "Institutionalized" !

Somerville School of Rock “Institutionalized”

Epic student collaboration. ☕️🎸
