Waronker, former frontwoman of That Dog and daughter of legendary producer Lenny Waronker, co-owns the new Five Foot Two label with sister-in-law and Go-Go Charlotte Caffey (they’re married to Redd Kross brothers Steve and Jeff McDonald, respectively).

 Go-Go's   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
Originally formed in 1978 as the Misfits, the group featured Belinda Carlisle (vocals), Jane Wiedlin (guitar, vocals), Charlotte Caffey (lead guitar, keyboards), Margot Olaverra (bass), and Elissa Bello (drums); the group soon changed their name to the Go-Go's and began playing local parties and small clubs in California.
During the next year the band was unable to perform as Caffey recovered from a broken wrist.
Belinda Carlisle became the most successful solo artist, scoring a string of mainstream pop singles in the late '80s, including the number one single "Heaven Is a Place on Earth." For a while, Charlotte Caffey was in Carlisle's backing group; she eventually formed the Graces, who released Perfect View in 1990.

Yet that didn't even enter the thinking of Anna Waronker and Charlotte Caffey, the former front person of That Dog and the co-founder of the Go-Go's, respectively, who set up their own label, Five Foot Two, earlier this year.
Caffey and Waronker have a slate of projects besides Waronker's on tap, from reissues of Caffey's husband Jeff McDonald's group Redd Kross, to a new one from the Muffs, to a Lisa Marr (ex-Cub) disc.
What these acts have in common is a love of and devotion to the short and sweet pop song -- not to mention that almost all of them were on majors and indies both.

The Go-Go's were the most popular all-female band to emerge from the punk/new wave explosion of the late '70s and early '80s, becoming one of the first commercially successful female groups that wasn't controlled by male producers or managers.
More importantly, their earliest music - now collected on "Return to the Valley of the Go-Go's" - was raw and rocking; it may not have directly inspired the female alternative rockers and riot grrrls of the '90s, but it certainly foreshadowed it.
Originally formed in 1978 as The Misfits, the group featured Belinda Carlile (vocals), Jane Wiedlin (guitar, vocals), Charlotte Caffey (lead guitar, keyboards), Margot Olaverra (bass), and Elissa Bello (drums); the group soon changed their name to the Go-Go's and began playing local parties and small clubs in California.

 Jane Wiedlin: A Go-Go's go-slow approach to investing
Detailed accounts (and videotaped evidence) of lewd incidents with male groupies, as well as the recollection of Caffey's heroin addiction gave an ironic poignancy to the old Go-Go's hit "Our Lips Are Sealed." Of course they were -- nothing they were doing was fit for public discussion.
So, as can be predicted when such a wild time accompanies hit records, which the Go-Go's had on all three of their '80s studio recordings, the band imploded under the weight of the party.
Charlotte (Caffey) and I co-wrote a song for Keith Urban, a country artist, called "But for the Grace of God," that went to No. 1.
