Teenage Love13

Knoxville, Tennessee punk band. Originally forming as either a joke or experiment, they played its first show in November of 1984. Based in Knoxville, Tennessee, the band was founded by vocalist Rus Harper and bassist John Sewell, the two constant members of the band for the entirety of their obscure but infamous career. Teenage Love quickly established itself as a mainstay of Knoxville’s punk/hardcore scene of 1984-1986. During this period, the band made its presence known by opening for many acts including the Dead Kennedys, the Descendents, Suicidal Tendencies, Toxic Reasons, Scream, Marginal Man, and many more.
