Antigone Rising

[erica]

It's touring season and I see you all post information for genre specific bands here! So, if you haven't heard the band Antigone Rising you should check them out!!



Late last year they revamped the band and added a new member, Nini Camps, she is a phenomenal front woman and writer! Kristen Henderson has an awesome blog (Hangin' with Hendo) you should most definitely check out, it's really funny, afterellen.com has given her a ton of exposure since they love the blog.

The band is touring now and adding a ton of shows! They just booked The Stone Pony is New Jersey and will be performing at the Northampton, MA PrideFest.

Just today they released an EP of some brand new music at www.antigonerising.com.

I've been reading this forum for quite sometime, figured I'd add a little something as well! Check their website for tour dates near you!

All the best,
Erica

I never really bothered to check out AR when I actually lived in NYC (I have no idea why), but now that Nini is fronting the band, I can't wait to see them next week in Arlington, VA!!! I first saw Nini when she opened for Michelle Malone about 8 years ago and have been a HUGE fan ever since!!!

Q - Dude - remember when Malone had to boot Nini out of the backstage area with us?

Yeah. I remember. We felt like rock stars for a minute, though. And then we felt like losers.

I was able to catch another one of their shows recently and what an event. With Nini fronting the band there is soooo much energy. You should most definitely check out a show soon!
