  • Bio

    New Tour Vlog, North America Spring 08 .. .. .. .. .. Organs On The kitchen Floor Video: .. .. .. .. .. ..OUR NEW SELF-TITLED RECORD IS OUT NOW!.... ....ORDER OUR FIRST MINI-LP 'COMFORTABLY UNCOMFORTABLE'.... or ....DOWNLOAD IT ON ITUNES.... VISIT OUR BLOG BY CLICKING THE IMAGE BELOW .. ...... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .... .. .. .. .. .... The Jealous Girlfriends make it work. The Brooklyn four-piece pull together the tunefulness of Anglo New Wave and BritPop, the aggression and energy of Washingtonian indie rock – both district and state - and infuse it all with a little soul, working an alchemy that transforms these base musical elements into songs crackling with tension and excitement that are instantly memorable while revealing something new with every listen... Overtop a rhythmic foundation laid down by drummer Michael Fadem, Josh Abbott and Holly Miranda’s buzzsaw guitars carom and careen against Alex Lipsen’s square wave synths as their voices duet and duel overtop in tones that are playful and plaintive, menacing and mesmerizing. It’s this potent lineup that has crafted their eponymous album following a 2005 debut mini-album featuring only Miranda and Lipsen... The Jealous Girlfriends have already achieved a tremendous amount for a wholly independent band, earning that blessing and curse of being one of the best-kept secrets in independent music. Now signed to Good Fences Records, they’re set to be unleashed upon an unsuspecting world... Armed with hooks, barbs, and velvet-lined bludgeons, The Jealous Girlfriends – the album – makes a striking statement that reveals The Jealous Girlfriends – the band - as an outfit that bends and pushes against the boundaries of rock music not so much with the intent to break them, but simply to see what kind of shapes they can make. ..

    ...... .. .. .. .. .. .... .... "The Jealous Girlfriends, one of the best new bands in New York, float through soft and erotic clouds of guitar and keyboards that can turn grungy and turbulent; the soft and erotic stuff is what’s gotten their music on “Grey’s Anatomy.” - THE NEW YORK TIMES

    Hey Hi Hello... Been daydreaming about getting over to rawk your side of the country, but the piggy bank is looking pretty sad lately. So, we'll just give you a virtual cruise till we can get an east coast thing happening (hopefully in the next year). Have a kickass week. Punk Rock! -Obedient Waves
