That's what she said.

About Me

Attack of the Mood Swings!!! The Mood Swings first full-length CD is available now! Album Artwork by Kelly Galey, Photos by Bert Guthrie

The Mood Swings would like everyone to know that none of them are Merry and they do not have mood swings. And we’ll personally tongue lash anyone who says different! We have a range of influences – from Janis Joplin to P.J. Harvey, Stevie Ray Vaughan to Sid Vicious. Rocking out is what we do while other women our age are kicking it with the Junior League or having their nails done. We’re middle-aged women with guitars, and proud of it!
