MILITANT MISS

MILITANT(militent)- 'aggressive in support of a cause.'"MILITANT MISS" is Tina Thurston ( Vocals & Lyrics) J.D. (Drums) Doug Canning (Guitar) Flipside (Bass) Zack ( Bass&Backing Vocals)Formed in 2003 by J.D., (Bionic Larry, 43 Cents, Money Shot, Hot Carl) and Doug (high school friend) jamming together a few times a week. Tina wrote a couple of songs with Bionic Larry. The combination worked and the three of them started forming their sound. By fall, a bass player filled in the gap and rehearsals began. Within only five months of forming Militant Miss the band started gigging. Their first show was January 2004, in Marin County. They recorded their first self titled CD at Studio D in the summer of 2004. By the fall of 04' Flipside, (Love, Health, and Money, high school friend) joined the band as the permanent bass player. With a couple years under his belt, and tons of gigs and recording, little did Flipside know that he was soon to be a new father! Their original music has some heavy, soulful melodies reminiscent of early Def Leppard, KISS, Motley Crue, Cheap Trick, Joan Jett, AC/DC, Heart, Y&T,Scorpions, Alice in Chains, & Pat Benetar. Tinas lyrics come from life experiences that can connect with most anyone who listens with their heart and an open mind. As a band, they form a sound of pure rock fronted by an impassioned female voice. Their music definitely has evolved since the Studio D recording to become a sound reflective of each of their contributing talents. Militant Miss currently performs all over the Bay Area and throughout Northern California. May the Rock be with you!!!
