Built upon a foundation of strength and self-awareness, The Regrettes are here to let you know that it's OK to be YOU.

Lead by Lydia Night, who was part of Ryan Gosling and Zach Shields' Dead Man's Bones and flanked by lifelong friends Genessa, Maxx, and Sage; the four-piece's music possesses the Riot Grrrl spirit while also channeling bands like The Ronettes, Hole and The Crystals.

“I feel like everyone in this generation right now is in denial about their feelings and about who they are and what they like and what they don't. Everybody is just kind of really scared to be honest and to be open and to be different and original, especially with our youth and people my age and people in high school. The people I'm surrounded by? People are scared to have real feelings and to actually be affected by certain things.” - Lydia in the LA Times

About Stories

Starting from a love of music and film, and wanting to collaborate with those involved, Stories has been the ultimate passport in navigating the world of creatives and their craft. Each project has opened the door to an opportunity that at one time felt out of reach. Moments have been shared, experiences gained, and friendships fostered all through Stories. The freedom of this personal project has given me the chance to express my own abilities alongside those whose work has had an effect on me. Time and time again, Stories has proven that sharing is the true gift of collaboration.
