Women Who Rock Wednesday: Girls Out Of The Garage

A while back I asked for things people would like to see more of on my blog and someone said they'd love to hear more about local Chicago music. I definitely like to promote local bands when I can and recently I was sent an email about this show which sounds incredible:


The email included links to all of the bands and I checked them all out and I have to say, I was blown away. I'm really excited that my first exposure to fabulous new music this year is not only local, it's all women! So I had to share this for Women Who Rock Wednesday.

I'm definitely going to this show and I hope that if you are in the area and over 18 (stupid Chicago curfew laws!), you will come check out GIRLS OUT OF THE GARAGE with me at Lincoln Hall (2424 N. Lincoln in Chicago) on Thursday January 28 starting at 8 pm. I mean seriously 10 bucks for these 4 bands is a steal!

Here's the schedule of the bands with links to their myspace pages so that you can listen to them and enjoy no matter where you are. Check out this line-up:

The Wanton Looks (11 PM)

Leslie Hunt (10 PM)

The Maybenauts (9 PM)

Scotia Widows (8 PM)

Next Wednesday, I'm hoping to have a proper WWRW interview with one of the bands (The Maybenauts). Happy listening to all of these bands. If you are in Chicago, lemme know if you are gonna go to the show. If you aren't in Chicago, tell me about your favorite local band, especially local bands with rockin' women!
