Brothers Steve and Jeff McDonald go all-in on their third act as a band with a doc, memoir and new album produced by Josh Klinghoffer

Last summer, Jeff and Steven McDonald, the brotherly duo who founded the pioneering, sound-shifting band Redd Kross, decided to check out their longtime pals Sparks at the Hollywood Bowl. The McDonalds, long inspired by the band created by brothers Ron and Russell Mael, saw the show with friend and musical collaborator Josh Klinghoffer and Steven’s wife, That Dog singer Anna Waronker, and left with a newfound appreciation for what Sparks accomplished as a band.

” As the documentary rolled on, Reich asked the brothers if they’d contribute a new song to close out the doc that traced the band’s origins through their own eyes. That song, “Born Innocent” , along with the pandemic, proved to be fertile ground to get the McDonalds to quickly move past “Beyond the Door” and get cracking on their eighth album. A couple of months after that Sparks show at the Bowl, Redd Kross ended up in the studio with Klinghoffer behind the kit and producing the project.
