Susanna Hoffs and her band play the hits

Susanna Hoffs comes to Largo at the Coronet with her band for a hits-focused set. The billing does not name the musicians in the group, but it frames the night around the songs that have defined Hoffs’s career, including the work that made her widely known as a member of the Bangles. In Largo’s seated theater, the room’s phone-free, quiet-during-performance policy puts the focus squarely on the music.

Born and raised in Los Angeles, Hoffs is the co-founder and frontwoman of the Bangles, a multi-platinum, global chart-topping band behind “Manic Monday,” “Walk Like an Egyptian,” “In Your Room” and “Eternal Flame.” Her work beyond the band includes three covers albums recorded with Matthew Sweet. She has also worked with collaborators including Rufus Wainwright, Dan Wilson and Edie Brickell, while CJ Camerieri has been identified as a producer on her recent work. Reviewing a 2025 solo performance, one writer called Hoffs’s voice “otherworldly” and singled out an acoustic “Hazy Shade of Winter” as “awesome,” while noting pauses and false starts in that particular show.
