The girls' combination of dense, distorted guitar work, fast and furious drumming, along with front woman Kate Werner's deep, throaty vocals (reminiscent of The Distillers' Brody Dalle) add up to one seductive, dangerous experience. These are the fearless, free-spirited, natural-born-
Make no mistake, these girls aren't angry or smarmy merely to jolt their tough-girl cred—they are genuinely entrenched in the gritty underbelly of New York City's rock scene. During their live shows, TALL BLACK GIRLS unleash a visceral swagger like the punk legends before them who blasted the stages of the Lower East Side before gentrification brought in the posers. While the audience gets caught up in the guttural, wild ride, the girls still manage to exude professionalism, seamlessly piloting one tight number into the next.
Since forming in 2007, they have had incredible support from fans and fellow musicians. In 2008, the band was flown to San Francisco to perform a sold-out show with The Misfits, and earlier that year the girls played for a packed crowd in Berlin for the reopening of White
Trash Fast Food. TALL BLACK GIRLS credits its hyperactive street team and personable approach—they're actually quite friendly—for gathering a legion of fans, rather than simply relying on the cold world of emails and social network sites. This is a hard-working band with a pure passion to perform live and bring the roar of powerful women to a fever pitch. TALL BLACK GIRLS are one infection you'd be wise to let tear through your system—if you can handle it, that is. TALL BLACK GIRLS debut CD is now available on iTunes.
