Penelope Houston, a native of Seattle met Danny Furious and Greg Ingraham at the San Francisco Art Institute, where they were students. After James (Jimmy) Wilsey joined up in August 1977, the Avengers became one of California’s most popular punk rock bands. A three-song EP by the band came out in 1977 on Dangerhouse Records, featuring “We Are the One”, “Car Crash” and “I Believe in Me”; another the following year on White Noise Records had four other monsters: “The American in Me”, “Uh Oh”, “Corpus Christi”, and “White N----r”.
