About Me

Pretty Dead Girls are a 4 piece filthy rock-n-roll band, hailing from Northampton, in the UK Midlands - Crunchy, sexy and generally intoxicated. They deliver a unique brand of unashamed kick-ass rock, with big riffs and even bigger choruses.
Zoe G s snarling vocals & lyrical sarcasm intertwine with OTT guitars laid down by Johnny Tourniquet, whilst Andy St Johns pounding drums and Mike Starrs low-slung bass provide the driving rhythm section. In the live scenario they are a sonic and visual tsunami, playing with unabashed energy and show(off)manship.
New album "Behind Your Eyes" has just been completed, with brand new tracks on this site now! The Cd will be available from this site in the next few weeks...
With influences including Motley Crue, Motorhead and err.. Kylie Minogue, Pretty Dead Girls are the original good-time had by all.
In their two years together they have shared a stage with many diverse and well-known acts, ranging from art-rockers Queen Adreena to rock legends Girlschool.
Recent review:
"Pretty Dead Girls are a real fun band: imagine AC/DC coupled with X-Ray Spex, add a slight twinge of Danielle Dax and you’re getting there. The result is classic hard rock with a dark edge to it. Great riffage, cool solos, and some fine vocals. Their own ’subtle’ flavour of classic rock spiked with punky guitar is a fantastic way to spend an evening, and it’s no wonder that Pretty Dead Girls have become well established"
Feel free to message us for any info regarding bookings, merch, gig-swaps etc etc...
