Girl in a Coma
Jenn, Nina and Phanie
If you like The Smiths, Morrissey and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs you might want to check out Girl in a Coma! They're an all girl band from San Antonio, Texas who are signed under Joan Jett's label, Blackheart Records. The band consists of two sisters, Phanie (drums) and Nina (vocals/guitar), and a childhood friend, Jenn (bass). Phanie and Nina met during art class in high school when they decided to make a band. When both girls started to look for a vocalist to try out, Nina offered to sing a song she wrote and got into the band when she was barely 12 years old!
Now the girls are touring from coast to coast playing in rock venues and music festivals. They have toured with people like Cyndi Lauper, Joan Jett and Morrissey himself (the band's idol). I got the chance to see them live and I believe they have been the best live preformance I have ever seen. There music is a combination of punk rock with a bit of melodic pop.
This is their video, El Monte, which is a modern love song Nina wrote.
GIAC's song, "Their Cell" has even been featured in Nylons TV starring Mary Kate Olsen!
