Women love us...men want to be us...

About Me

All MT-TV video's have been made by BLACKWING FILMS. Great stuff, good people. Click here to go straight to their site, specially if you want a video!


Nine women. Eight English and one from Holland. With all the history of the British music scene behind us - but without replicating anything from the past. We left London to follow our American dream and are having the time of our lives trying to make it here.
Going beyond the simple playing of music on-stage into a multi-layered, multi-leveled conceptual and experiential punch in the frontal lobes. Don't know what that means? I'm not surprised! What I write is totally true - but we're all exposed to so much 'journalese' flowery language dedicated to describing differently whats already been done a million times before that when something utterly new comes along, the only thing that remains is to see it live. That's MT-TV. Our gigs veer towards the darker expression of the female experience - and we continually create new visions for our unique stage-show...Come see for yourself...

Who does our music appeal to? Weirdly enough - it seems to be everyone... From Goths and metalheads to pop-fans and so-called 'normal' men and women of every age... For a start, half the planet are female, and women seem to relate to what we do and sing about, they love the music, and then sigh in relief that there are women out there who are more than just a 'girl-band'.The other half of the planet seem to be fairly interested in the first half, so we're pretty great for them too! We don't mind a certain amount of the 'eye-candy' factor going down, once we start to play, within minutes they all see further into our souls and standards.

We look good and we're in love with life and music. We feel that because we are an all female band, we have the power to make some specific points relating to the female perspective and experience. A combination of spirituality, protest and the classic sheer essence of rock music - that un-nameable bit that really GETS you whoever the band are...combined with symbolic theatrics to accompany our more thematic lyrics. In plain and simple language - brilliant music with a live show that will blow you away.
I'll say it again as it is pretty damn impressive - there are nine women in MT-TV. We're not a 'girl-band', we're not a product, we're not teenagers, and our bolshiness and confidence and sheer GODDAMN LOOK AT THAT comes from having lived life rather than an image created and strapped on for the camera's. We have a big yellow school bus with bunks on it, and limited space needs maximum co-operation and friendship. We're not cat-fighting at each others throats (although we might indulge in private baby-oil wrestling from time to time...) LIE

So - here's how you know which name to shout out...who's who in MT-TV:

KROW: Our black feathered vocal power and songwriter. Her voice is really something else...Stunning range, enigmatic and powerful on-stage.
FUSE: Killer bass. A fretless Steinberger is her weapon of choice and she spanks that plank with unrelenting accuracy. Receiver of much professional acclaim...seriously, if you are a bassist you have to see this woman play before you quit in the face of her talent.
JO: Killer drums and percussion...metronome addict! No, not methadone METRONOME...! Another blazing talent with her personal growing fanbase of glassy-eyed drum afficionados.
ALEX: Lead guitarist, bold and brazen...nuff said.
BROOKE: Rhythm guitar beauty. Solid playing, solid abs.
NIKKI: Classically trained Faerie on Keyboards.
THE STEREOTYPES: Blonde, Brown and Black harmonizing and 'smack in the brain' visual projection. The suppliers of the interactive theatrics...you'll know what we're talking about when you come see us live...
