It’s only going to take a single listen for every song to implant itself in your head, but Girlfriends has the kind of lasting value you’ll want to have as a permanent part of your music collection.
Wrong Generation goes hard right out of the gate with “BITE BACK”, guitars and crashing drums building into a headphone-shaking stomp in less than a minute.
This week we chinwag about what we were doing as musicians at the young age of 12. Afterward we chat with Anastasia Grace, singer of The Haunt.
The sibling fronted group based out of South Florida merges genres of alternative, indie, rock & roll, garage, and blues. 17 year old Anastasia has been performing live since the age of 9, complimented by her older brother, Maxamillion. Anastasia tells us about her experiences in middle school, which lead to a viral hit song that she wrote entitled “All Went Black”. She also tells us about her experience on the road, opening for Palaye Royale, and much more!
