'''Le Tigre''' ({{IPAc-en|l|ə|_|ˈ|t|iː|ɡ|r|ə}}, {{IPA|fr|lə tiɡʁ}}; French for "The Tiger") is an American [[art punk]] and [[riot grrrl]] band formed by [[Kathleen Hanna]] (of [[Bikini Kill]]), [[JD Fateman]] and [[Sadie Benning]] in 1998 in New York City. Benning left in 2000 and was replaced by [[JD Samson]]. They mixed [[Punk rock|punk]]'s directness and politics with playful samples, eclectic pop, and [[lo-fi (audio)|lo-fi]] electronics. Like with many bands in and from the [[riot grrrl]] movement, many of the lyrics addressed [[Feminism|feminist]] themes and ideas. The group also added multimedia and performance art elements to their live shows, which often featured support from like-minded acts such as [[the Need]].5 “Music for Everyone.” Contact - Spotify, www.spotify.com/.
