BIO

Linda From Work is a fierce rock band hailing from Seattle, led by Hillary Tusick (vocals/guitar) and featuring Elliott Gregory (guitar), Shayla Riday (bass) & Sam Nowak (drums). Meeting at the intersection of garage, glam and dance-punk, Linda From Work has crafted a high-energy sound built on powerhouse vocals and driving melodies that can only be described as rock ‘n’ roll, baby!

Linda From Work has received airplay both locally and abroad, including on the globally known KEXP, and has shared a stage with the likes of Everclear, A Giant Dog, TsuShiMaMiRe, The Pink Spiders, Daiistar, Spoon Benders, Sgt.

They have been seen performing at SXSW, Bumbershoot, Treefort Music Fest, Capitol Hill Block Party, Freakout Festival and Offbeat Music Festival. They’ve also recently had the honor of being one of ten artists selected for a 2024 Sonic Guild Grant to pursue their goals even further.

Linda From Work recently had the honor of being one of ten artists selected for a 2024 Sonic Guild Grant, which they invested into their third album (released October 17th, 2025.) A soundtrack for the modern fever dream, Linda From Work’s self-titled LP has defined and refined their signature sound. As Chris Sanley of KEXP writes, “Fueled by searing guitars, potent percussion, and Hillary Tusick’s fierce vocals, this aptly self-titled release showcases a tight, assured outfit delivering well-crafted, melodic rippers with a bite.”

“The third studio album from Seattle’s Linda From Work is a lively set of punk-infused garage rock. Fueled by searing guitars, potent percussion, and Hillary Tusick’s fierce vocals, this aptly self-titled release showcases a tight, assured outfit delivering well-crafted, melodic rippers with a bite.”

-Chris Sanley, KEXP

“With their self-titled LP, [Linda From Work] channel their anger and anxiety into something confident and cathartic—power meets melody. The twelve new songs are a dynamic rush of defiance, freedom, and sharp-edged honesty, built with heavy riffs, loud drums and persuasive vocals. Even when singing “I’m no fun for anyone” (in No Fun—not a cover), set to tones reminiscent of The Cure, you wish your colleagues had such good taste in music.”

-Dennis, Add To Wantlist

“Take a base of good old fashioned garage rock, toss in some glam add a dash of punk and mix it all with a heavy dose loud guitars, thundering bass, driving drums and fierce, female energy and you’ve got yourself Seattle’s Linda From Work.

The band is a group of four best friends who make up one of the most exciting, young Seattle bands around. Their latest album, which is a self-titled effort, features 12 tracks of rock ‘n’ roll fun that provide a blast of fresh, spirited musical energy for your ears.”

-Travis Hay, Guerilla Candy

On the first single “Seeing Red”...the band leans into their maturing songwriting skills and creates a crashout punk anthem about yanking power back from their oppressors... Linda From Work shows no signs of slowing down and is ready to take on 2026 with the same in-your-face rebellious energy."

-Ryne Hancock, Antigravity Magazine

“For me, one of the breakout Seattle albums of 2021 was Linda from Work’s debut LP “Burnout”. And what did the quartet do with all that promise? Well, they topped themselves. “The Night is Short” is full of clever and affecting meditations on patriarchal dread (“Father, May I?”), ego (um, “Ego”), and insatiable ambition (“The World”). “Jealous” is easily one of the best rock songs to come out of Seattle this year, and frontwoman Hillary Tusick remains virtually unchallenged as one of the city’s best rock singers. “

-Martin Douglas, KEXP

“You can do garage rock however you want, but there’s one rule: you gotta be cool. And Linda from Work, fronted by singer/guitarist Hillary Tusick, is seriously cool. She and her bandmates (Elliott Gregory, Shayla Riday, and Sam Nowak) toss dance punk and glam into the mix, and the resulting concoction has made them one of Seattle’s must-see live bands.”
