They are so bad, they’re good. By all accounts, very good.
The six-member Bad Girlfriends band may be a bit of a misnomer, as they are half male and half female in their composition. No Matter. That’s the rub. And that’s what makes them truly special, as they share duties that even include the guitar playing, and you just don’t see that very often.
The band will blow up The GasLite bar and grill in Ellsworth on Saturday night, fresh off of a killer show at Pea Soup Days in Somerset, so check out the Three Blondes and three boys (as opposed to Four Non-Blondes).
This is the diversity brought to the table: There is Suzy on vocals and keyboards and most importantly guitar, Deb on lead vocals, Laurie on bass and fiddle-playing that’s been raved about as exceptional, Tom on bass and vocals, Tommy D on vocals and guitar and harmonica, and Pete on (again) guitar and vocals.
They take the stage at 8:30 p.m.
