Zoë Kravitz headlines a show with her rock band, Elevator Fight, at Debonair Social Club on Sunday.
When your dad's a legendary rock star and you're a gorgeous girl, you basically have two choices: become a model or launch your own singing career.
Zoë Kravitz, a breathtaking beauty who happens to be the spawn of rocker Lenny Kravitz and Lisa Bonet, chose both.
We'll see if she has the chops when she performs at a benefit for Autism Speaks with Philly-based band Elevator Fight at Debonair Social Club Sunday.
Hosted by Venus Zine, the event also includes a performance by Cali girl group The Donnas. Amazingly this showcase is only $5, with all proceeds benefiting Autism Speaks. 10pm-2am Sunday. RSVP to events@VenusZine.com.
