The lineup of that dog. (the lower case letters and period always inclusive) consisted of lyricist [[Anna Waronker]] (daughter of producer and one-time Warner Bros. Records head Lenny Waronker) on lead vocals and guitar, [[Rachel Haden]] on bass guitar and vocals, and her sister [[Petra Haden]] on violin and vocals (both a part of triplet sisters born to jazz great Charlie Haden). Friends since high school, the ladies were joined by drummer [[Tony Maxwell]] in 1992.  Their punky power-pop songs were full of hooks and drenched with many layered vocal harmonies.
