Donita Sparks, known internationally as the front person and main songwriter of seminal rock band L7, releases her solo debut Transmiticate on her own label SparksFly Records on February 19, 2008 (distributed through Redeye). Recorded in Los Angeles, Donita co-produced the album along with Ethan Allen (Luscious Jackson, The 88, Daniel Lanois).

The record is filled with dance-rock and dark-pop gems that see Donita moving solidly into interesting new territories. Chunky guitar riffs live side by side with synths, reverb twangs, handclaps and girl-group harmonies providing ear candy chocked with glam, avant-garde punk, and lush melancholy. Donita Sparks with her backing band The Stellar Moments (featuring Dee Plakas of L7 on drums) completed a US tour with The Donnas in October.

Sparks continues to deliver her unbridled raw energy that made L7 performances the stuff of legend. Donita and the band have a tour of Brazil in February followed by a showcase at SXSW, and US and European tours for spring/summer 2008.
