As if you need more reasons to come




You know you want to come! Here are bio's of the wonderful girls performing at the launch party.  

La Catrin & The Love and Terror Cult
(myspace.com/lacatrin)
Ex front-woman for Heist At Hand, Miss Bianca Montalvo aka "La Catrin" is back! Having toured the U.S. and Mexico extensively with her previous prog effort, Heist At Hand, Miss Bianca is currently working on her first solo project under the alias "La Catrin" along with various anonymous persons known as "The Love and Terror Cult". Miss Bianca is currently collaborating in the studio with indie hit maker Bob Hoag (Dear and the Headlights, Recover, Awake and Alert etc..) on La Catrin's debut full length album titled "Humans Are My Keyboards". On stage La Catrin is all about fantasy. Tutu's, Venetian mask, balloons, and neon forest backdrops are the norm. Looks like Lisa Frank grew up, and she's just a bit twisted.
