Luckie Strike was an American punk rock band from Sacramento, California, formed in 1996. As a female-fronted band, their diverse sound received particular attention, and both positive and critical reviews. Luckie Strike faced challenges on the road, including a stolen van in 2001, leading to a temporary hiatus and eventual disbandment in 2002.

History

Early years

Inspired by shared experiences of social ostracism, Melanie "Mel" Levy (vocals) and Kevin "Bubba" Sur (guitar) sought a creative outlet for their frustrations when they founded the band Luckie Strike in 1996[1]. Teaming up with bassist Andre "Dre" Gallardo and drummer Liz Salmi (née Beidelman), the group established roots in Sacramento, California, connecting with a growing audience who resonated with their musical expression of societal exclusion.[2] On the formation of the band, Sur was quoted as saying, "Me and Mel (Levy) were very ambitious. We had a lot of big ideas about what we wanted to do with our lives." The search for Salmi, then a high school senior, and Gallardo, who had relocated from Quezon City in the Philippines to Sacramento, took eight months of auditions.[3]

The band released a three-song tape—dubbed the "Milk Truck" demo—and developed a following in Northern California. The tape featured an illustration of a milk truck (drawn by bassist Gallardo), and the band's original name "Lucky Strike." In early 1997, the band changed their name to "Luckie Strike" to avoid potential confusion with, or endorsement of, Lucky Strike cigarettes.

Original releases (1997-2001)

Luckie Strike released their first full-length album, Geekcore, on Pork N Beans Records in 1997 (a label founded by members of the ska punk band Mealticket). Recorded at Prairie Sun Recording Studios in Cotati, CA, and Pus Cavern in Sacramento, CA, notable songs included "25 Hour Day" and "Get Some." A 1998 review of Geekcore stated that the band, "evokes the spirit of Tilt, delivering a punky and assertive sound that seamlessly blends the loud and rocking elements with clever touches of swing... a remarkable accomplishment for an emerging band on an independent label."[4] An illustration of the band, drawn by bassist Gallardo, depicts the group as anthropomorphic penguins/bowling pins on the cover. A heavy tour across the United States followed.

In 1998, Luckie Strike released the four-song EP, Have You Seen Me?, on Tomato Head Records. Primarily recorded at Pus Cavern studios in Sacramento, CA, songs included a fast-paced cover of Bahamian folk song "Sloop John B," "Slightly Stoopid" (named after the band of the same name), and the satirical "Eat Your Poop"—which was recorded live at Sacramento nightclub Bo Jangles. Pressed on red vinyl in a limited run, the liner notes featured photos of band members during their elementary school days. Levy was awarded a SAMMIE for “Best Female Vocalist” by Sacramento News & Review in 1999.

Following more than a year of touring across the United States, Luckie Strike released Future Is Turning in early 2000 on Tomato Head Records. The 6-song EP—recorded at Hyde Street Studios in San Francisco, California—featured a guest appearance by Curtis Meacham (of Monkey) on Hammond B-3 organ for a cover of Elvis Costello's "Radio, Radio." The album was produced by multi-platinum, Grammy Award Winning producer/engineer Dennis MacKay (David Bowie, Jeff Beck, Judas Priest, Paul McCartney).[5] Backing vocals on "How The Story Goes" included members of Diesel Boy, Link 80, Little Tin Frog, and Tsunami Bomb. Logan Whitehurst (of Little Tin Frog, The Velvet Teen, Logan Whitehurst and the Junior Science Club) is listed as a "musical technician" in album credits. The illustration of Luckie Strike, found on the inside back cover of the compact disc, was drawn by bassist Gallardo.

Six months after the release of Future Is Turning, Luckie Strike released a full-length album, The Mercury Project, on Fastmusic. The band continued to work with the same recording team at Hyde Street Studios, including MacKay and Whitehurst. Songs included "I'm Sick" and "Routine." A review posted to PunkNews.org critiqued the band for being, "one of those bands that are not sure what it wants to play."[6] However in the same review, "One cool thing about this band is that the singer is a girl... and has a really good voice that is capable of doing a decent melodic emo, and an awesome raging hardcore scream."[7] For The Mercury Project, Luckie Strike re-recorded "Get Some" (from 1997's Geekcore), as well as "Sloop John B" (featured on 1998's Have You Seen Me?). According to the band, The Mercury Project refers to the speed at which they recorded and released two records within the same year—totaling 17 songs. Cover art and illustrations for the The Mercury Project were drawn by bassist Gallardo.

Stolen van, theft of master recordings, and break up (2001-2002)

While on tour to promote The Mercury Project, Luckie Strike had their touring van and instruments stolen in Houston, Texas. In a 2016 interview on the 3 Gigs Podcast, Levy explained, "We had a tour van with a trailer attached... with all of our equipment and the whole thing was gone."[8] The band returned to Sacramento, borrowed instruments from friends, while other bands hosted benefit concerts to help Luckie Strike get back on their feet.

Soon thereafter, Luckie Strike’s master recordings for Future Is Turning and The Mercury Project went missing at Hyde Street Studios. The band attributes the missing recordings to a theft by a former manager.  

During their peak, Luckie Strike performed approximately 150-200 shows annually, and the theft of the van and recordings dealt a significant setback. Reflecting on the challenges, Sur remarked, "We've been through so much that, really, not much could stop us. It's what we have to do. It's just like breathing for us. We have to play music. We absolutely love and enjoy what we do."[9] Bassist Gallardo departed from the band approximately six months later. In the end, Luckie Strike disbanded in the summer of 2002, citing broken hearts.

Advocacy work

Six years after their break-up, Luckie Strike drummer Salmi received a diagnosis of a malignant brain tumor (brain cancer) in 2008. Uninsured at the time, Sur and Levy collaborated with the band's network of friends and fans to raise funds for Salmi's medical costs. Under a banner of "The Liz Army," benefit concerts were organized around northern California, ultimately leading to a reunion concert that included the original and current members of the band Tsunami Bomb, including original vocalist Emily Whitehurst.[10][11] Emily Whitehurst, a friend and tourmate of Salmi, had her own personal experience with brain cancer, having lost a brother, Logan Whitehurst, to the disease two years prior.[12] (Logan Whitehurst is also cited as Luckie Strike’s recording technician on Future Is Turning and The Mercury Project.)

In 2023, Luckie Strike acquired full access and rights to their original recordings (Geekcore, Have You Seen Me?, Future Is Turning, The Mercury Project). The band intends to remaster select songs from these recordings, release the songs (including three previously unreleased songs), and allocate funds raised to benefit National Brain Tumor Society, in honor of Salmi and in memory of Logan Whitehurst.

Post-Luckie Strike activities

After Luckie Strike disbanded in 2002, guitarist Sur moved to Seattle, Washington[13]. He went on to form the band Indian Valley Line[14], and found Artist Home, a company of "culture makers, community builders, and event producers" that serve the Pacific Northwest[15], widely recognized for founding the popular music festivals Doe Bay Fest and Timber! Outdoor Music Festival.[16] Sur is a DJ for Seattle's KEXP where he hosts a program amplifying voices of Indigenous people.[17]

After 10 years living in the Bay Area, Levy returned to Sacramento and launched “Melanie Levy Fitness.” She helps women make long term, sustainable, and positive mental and physical changes in their lives through movement and mindset shifts around exercise.[18]

Gallardo, now based in San Diego, California, is a product designer and art director. In addition to professional pursuits and enjoying a quiet home life, he continues to write songs and play music "against his better judgment." While his closest friends have observed his deepening interest in Steely Dan, Andre remains a multifaceted artist, seamlessly merging his design expertise with a love for music and occasional social escapades.

Drummer Salmi went on to play with My Merry Malady[19] and Angoramachinegun. After being diagnosed with a malignant brain tumor in 2008,[20] Salmi shifted her focus to patient advocacy. She became a researcher affiliated with Harvard Medical School,[21] specializing in facilitating collaborations between clinicians and patients in research co-design, and co-leading the OpenNotes initiative. Her work is published in journals including JAMA Open, the BMJ and the New England Journal of Medicine[22][23][24]. Salmi stays connected to the Sacramento music scene by volunteering for Girls Rock Sacramento, a program that helps young people build self esteem through music education, performance, and the development of leadership skills.[25][26]
