7 Door Sedan is a punk-inspired indie rock band from Silver Spring, MD, a few blocks outside of Washington DC. National Public Radio and The Washington Post have praised the band’s music and performance.
Their third album, “Neutral” was released February 2025 on all major streaming platforms. Previous works include “Killer Good” and “Gotta Gotta Gotta.” Several singles were released in the fall of 2024.
7 Door Sedan front man Glenn Kowalski was a primary member of White Boy, one of Washington DC’s influential punk bands. New Musical Express called White Boy’s first release “America’s fastest selling new wave disc.” Songs from these early releases appear in feature films “Punk the Capitol” and “Salad Days.“
In 2008, Glenn released the album “Killer Good” as 7 Door Sedan. He wrote, recorded, performed and produced the entire album. After what had been a hiatus from the stage, he recruited veteran DC area musicians to both perform and record the second album, “Gotta Gotta Gotta.” Members of 7 Door Sedan include Glenn on guitar and vocals, Josh Singer on bass, and Norman van der Sluys on drums.
7 Door Sedan has performed shows throughout the Washington DC area and has just released the third album, “Neutral,” featuring 10 tracks. American Pancake calls the track “Outsider,” “punchy indie rock 80’s new wave fueled by gritty vocal wails and full throttle stripped down raw rock.” Click Rock Boom says “Like a Song,” is “an effortlessly cool slice of indie rock.”
Glenn has been twice nominated for modern rock instrumentalist of the year by the Washington Area Music Association for his work with 7 Door Sedan.
