Calamity Jane was an all-female American grunge/punk band, formed in Portland, Oregon, United States, in 1989.

Gilly Ann Hanner (vocals/guitar) and Lisa Koenig (drums) started playing together as a band in 1988 along with Ronna Era (bass).

After a few live appearances Hanner's sister Megan took over on bass and the band was renamed Calamity Jane the following year.

One of these shows, in Buenos Aires, Argentina, ended in Calamity Jane being booed off and thrown mud and rocks by the stage, which motivated Nirvana to intentionally sabotage their own performance.
