====== The Reckless Ways ======

Power Pop\\
Los Angeles, California, USA

[[Mini Mendez]] started a band called [[Reckless Love]] at some point after [[The Holidays]]. In 1994, Reckless Love changed drummers and became The Reckless Ways. The bio on the BandCamp page about The Reckless Ways says:

"Formed in 1994, pop/roots trio The Reckless Ways played mostly in lost hideaways and small dives; places with names like Haven, JJ’s Lounge, Boar’s Head; places that for the most part, no longer exist. With their guitar ‘n’ melody-driven sound, The Ways didn’t quite fit into the grunge-covered musical landscape of the ’90s, but that never stopped an upbeat and loud live show. After three years of gigging, the band released their debut EP, //Desperate Kiss// in 1997, only to pack it in by year’s end."
