ABC/Lorenzo BevilaquaHole band mates Courtney Love and Melissa Auf der Maur will reunite for a benefit concert in support of Planned Parenthood.
According to Rolling Stone, the event will take place March 14 at Town Hall in New York City. The lineup also includes Perry Farrell and his wife, Etty.
“When the question is around women’s reproductive rights, the first thought I had as the former bass player of Hole was, ‘Time to get the band back together,'” Auf der Maur tells Rolling Stone.
“I began to imagine Courtney and all of her complex feminist lyrics screaming at these old men who dared to judge what we should and should not have,” she continues. “I wanted to get back onstage supporting Hole’s legacy in being outspoken and fearless. We are both mothers of daughters, and as it was before, their rights and future generations’ women’s rights and freedoms are my inspiration.”
Love and Auf der Maur previously shared the stage in October 2018. Prior to that, they hadn’t played together since 2012.
Hole officially broke up in 2002. Last fall, Love teased a full Hole reunion in a since-deleted Instagram post.
