We may not have heard of them (they were way before our time!), but 80’s band Sonic Youth is set to appear on the 5th episode of Season 3 of GG this autumn!
Why, you may ask, would a show attracting so many young viewers have an 80’s band make an appearance?

Gossip Girl’s Executive Producer Stephanie Savage tells us why.

Sonic Youth is one of my favorite bands, and last year when I was doing my regular Gossip Girl Google search, it came up in some blog about a Sonic Youth show that Thurston [Moore] was playing ‘Psychic Hearts’ and Gossip Girl was playing on a screen in the background.”

“And I was like, ‘Whaaaat? Oh my God. I hope they’re not making fun of us! I hope it was a cool, edgy homage!’ And it turned out that it was – tongue in cheek for sure, but definitely with love, and that they were fans of the show.”

Wow! Who knew GG attracted the older age groups? But somehow, I don’t think we’ll be seeing our parents glued to the TV when Season 3 arrives!
