The Rocket Queens

The Rocket Queens are a New York City-based, all-female tribute to Guns 'N Roses founded by 2010 Shred For Your Life champion and session guitarist Lily Maase.

Featuring a lineup of all-pro, all-female players, the Rocket Queens have the chops and the stage presence necessary to kick out a faithful recreation of the musical prowess and onstage chemistry of the band's original lineup, complete with stage antics, attitude, and note-for-note riffs, vocals and guitar solos.

Witnessing the Rocket Queens live is the closest thing a modern audience can get to seeing hard rock's heaviest hitters as they were in their prime: seasoned musicians dripping with sweat, swagger, and way too much style for their own good. If, of course, the original GnR lineup had shopped at Victoria's Secret and worn 6-inch heels.

Posh Hammer

In the wild mountains just outside of Music Mecca Asheville, North Carolina lives a trio of teenage siblings with old souls and retro hair. From down, down in a basement littered with guitars, amps, microphones, and drums comes music for the ages. These teens play original pop-rock. Combining perfectly crafted hooks and dance beats with the energy of rock n’ roll. Start with the Beatles, layer in some David Bowie and Roxy Music, and then add The 1975 or The Killers. Voila, Posh Hammer. But they make it all their own: Navied's lyrics and lead work combined with Tasnim's astonishing vocals, and Tiam's driving bass, give Posh Hammer it's own sound and it's own vibe. Derivative? Of course. Unique? Absolutely. Fun? Way too much.

Posh Hammer has made a career in music their top priority; even convincing their parents to homeschool them to give them the time needed to seriously pursue their dreams. Writing their own music and playing multiple instruments, this band is the real thing.
