With the 12 songs on their debut album "Plastic Teenage Dolls" ranging from atmospheric to armageddon, these 4 Bucks County, PA UPPER-MIDDLE CLASS 'Dads' comprise the original alternative rock band "12inch GiRL". Their near-PUNK, almost-METAL, Pop-sensability include influences ranging from Andy Gibb to The Ramones with stops everywhere inbetween. ARGUABLY THE BEST ORIGINAL MIDDLE-AGED ROCK BAND in Bucks County PA, we ranked top 1.2% (about 55 out of 4,750) of bands in a single-song MySpace competition sponsored by Virgin Records. This song titled "NEIGHBORS DAUGHTER" is a disturbing socio-sexual satire of the suburban male. Also featured in June 2008 LifeStyle Magazine on the emerging local music scene, we are well on our way to becoming perhaps the first break-out middle-aged alternative rock band. 12inch GiRL is going back into the studio after 3 years too record an EP and these new songs will 'blow your minds'. So stay alert and look for our new sound perhaps as early as Christmas.
THANKS,
12inch GiRL
