L7 bassist Jennifer Finch *Jennifer Finch Jennifer Finch, the musician, artist, and photographer best known as the bassist for rock outfit L7, is undergoing treatment after being diagnosed with an aggressive form of brain cancer, per a statement released by her representative.
When Finch was first diagnosed, it was believed her condition would be easily treated with radiation, but complications have since required her to undergo multiple surgeries. These have left her with severe physical limitations, and she requires extensive medical care.
Finch’s friends and family have launched a GoFundMe to cover the costs associated with her treatment and recovery. The money will help pay for professional nursing care, medical equipment, rehab and therapy, and other in-home care needs; plus, it will help recoup out-of-pocket medical expenses and legal fees. The GoFundMe will also support efforts to create an archive of Finch’s work and complete what’s described as “a significant creative project” that was scheduled for release next year.
Because of Finch’s diagnosis and treatment, she will not be joining L7 on the upcoming U.S. leg of their “Last Hurrah Tour.” The trek was originally planned when Finch was in good health, and she’s asked her bandmates to continue as planned.
