Eugene indie rock quartet ExWife will play their
most high-profile local concert Saturday, August 23, at
Market Fest, the Eugene Market District’s annual street fair celebration. Together
in one form or another since 2020, ExWife released their debut album, Blow, this
year. Singer, guitarist and primary songwriter Alexandria Bonanno says her band
will premiere new music at the show, along with other surprises like a synthesizer
interlude and their first cover. Eugene musician Nicholas Kauffman plays guitar
in the group, Josh Mahurin-Chavez plays drums and Kadin Monegan plays bass.
Bonanno says she grew up in what she calls a “fundamentalist Christian cult” near
Prineville. While music and writing songs were a part of her life, after leaving the
cult behind, she only discovered the grunge and indie-rock influenced music her
band plays around the same time she got divorced about three years ago. “I was
in a relationship that was also church-centered,” Bonanno tells Eugene Weekly.
“It wasn’t until after my divorce that I was able to pick up an electric guitar and
express myself in a way that I’ve always wanted to, but haven’t been able to,” she
says. Leaning on fuzzy guitars and garage rock production, ExWife recalls ’90s
bands like Sleater-Kinney and Hole. The project is centered around Bonnano’s
strong, cathartic singing voice, capable of punk rock abandon while never forget-
ting hooks and melody. Since Blow was released, ExWife has pushed their music
on social media, primarily TikTok, which Bonanno calls the best way to reach new
listeners. Bonanno also keeps fans up to date on the band’s Substack, ThisisEx-
