Band Spotlight: MK (Our Bassist) in PA

SONGS of SUMMER 2020: WIPEOUT   Ah summer, the sound of sandy beaches, tasty peaches, children laughing making sand castles, sitting in summer traffic hassles, and the air thick with smells of salty sea air, Coppertone #2 tanning oil and shiny blonde hair, experienced through an overused wet hospital mask and hazmat suit.   Summer… Read more »

  Band Spotlight: Christina at Home!

Christina here, coming at you from the too familiar view of my living room. What an insane past few months it has been! I sure miss playing for you all. I miss the feeling of being in the wings before the start of a show and putting on my game face as soon as I… Read more »

  Hello, Kentucky!

Post-show band pic.

On Friday, November 3, the Femmes and I headed to Kentucky for the first time. This show was particularly special for me because we were close to my hometown of Evansville. Just shy of a 3-hour drive from southern Indiana, my mom made the drive to see her first FOR show. It had been a… Read more »

  Femmes of Rock Make Las Vegas Debut!

Sweet Home Alabama!

We toured for about a year before we decided it was time to perform in the city where most of us live and work. When it came time to debut our crown jewel, the show that we have all worked so hard on, there was only one location I could think of for us to… Read more »

  I Love the Beach but Hate All the Sand…

Not Too Shabby.

“I Love the Beach but Hate all the Sand….” Femmes of Rock Show at Nevis. By MK     Ah, the Island of Nevis (rhymes with Beavis)….a small island in the Caribbean Sea that forms part of the inner arc of the Leeward Island chain of the West Indies. Sounds sooo, exotic.  The actual name… Read more »

  Disney’s Epcot Center!

Femmes at Epcot.

  On October 13th Femmes of Rock performed at The Walt Disney World resort. What an incredible experience! We stayed at the animal kingdom hotel, and it was amazing. If you looked out your room window,  you saw little elephants. How cool is that? It was my first time at Disney World and I felt… Read more »

  Hiya, Toledo!

See you next time!

Recently, the crew and I packed up and headed out for Toledo, Ohio, for a performance at the beautiful Hollywood Casino. It was fun to peek around the casino, which was decked out with photos of classic movie stars, flashing lights, and an all around vintage show-biz vibe. We set up shop smack-dab in the… Read more »

  A Blast From My Past–Bemus Point Performance

By sea, I mean lake. It's a large lake.

I grew up in a small historic village called Lewiston, NY. About 90 minutes south towards the Pennsylvania border, my aunt and uncle have a cottage on Lake Chautauqua, and I spent many of my summer vacations there jet skiing, fishing, boating, having bonfires, and watching the thunderstorms from the screened-in porch. Somehow or another,… Read more »

  Femmes Rock Milwaukee

Thank you Milwaukee!

On July 22 & 23, Femmes of Rock performed for the first time in Milwaukee, WI at Festa Italiana on the Summerfest grounds. It’s pretty astonishing that the opening night (Saturday) went as well as it did. The Femmes headlined at the legendary Arcada Theater in Chicago the night before. Once that show wrapped, a… Read more »

  Music Video & First Single Release

The question I get asked the most in my career is “why don’t you have an album/music video out?” The honest answer is because we perform, between corporate and tour dates, over 250 shows/ year. It is a champagne problem. I would love to be cranking out albums, but the performance schedule doubled with management… Read more »

  Utah

This year has been one for the books as far as traveling goes for the Femmes of Rock. We’ve soared above the treetops for a view of the Canadian Rockies, swam in the turquoise waters of the Caribbean Sea, and  even tasted authentic lobster chowder in snow-dusted Maine. This past week, we gathered our gear and headed north for Cherry Peak Resort in Richmond, Utah. The day of the show, we were welcomed by the friendly summer skies and greeted with smiles and warmth by the staff of the resort. Chandra, Nina, Carissa and I hauled our instruments on stage and unpacked (after the rigorous setup by our sound tech)…
