Everyone loves The Worsties. Read the foxyness!

So here is what you need to know about Anna Worstell, lead singer for The Worsties: she is not Gwen Stefani or Hayley Williams from Paramore or Courtney Love. She is the frontwoman with the badass swagger, the chick with the sky-high heels and holy crap, can she sing. The Worsties are Nashville’s answer to the ska/punk-pop revival and at the band’s performance for Next Big Nashville Thursday night at 12th and Porter, Worstell– along with guitarist Jesse Worstell, bassist Jairo Ruiz and drummer Nathan Shelton– had the mostly-female crowd eating out the palm of Anna’s perfectly manicured hand. Here is why The Worsties rule: they are not an indie rock band, though all signs might point to the contrary. It’s evident the band members have their individual musical interests; Anna obviously has some ska in her and Ruiz some heavy metal. The band itself describes their music as “hot, party drenched rock” influenced by indie gods The Pixies and Siouxsie and the Banshees, and quite honestly, I can’t find a better way to describe it. Any way you slice it, The Worsties are light, poppy, unadultered fun. “I’ll tell you a secret if you promise not tell,” Anna coquettishly cooed before letting her vocal chords pummel our ear drums on “Don’t Mind Me.” I was sure she was either going to make out with someone or kick their ass. “That was a good song,” the man to my left said stoically as the track ended. I think he might have been in awe — as the majority of the men present were — though it has to be said it could have had something to do with the sequined hot pants worn by the leggy lead singer. Find out the next time The Worsties hit the stage ’round town. Come ready to dance and shout along with one of this region’s most engaging, high energy acts on the stage. “L-E-T-S-G-O! Let’s go! Let’s go!” might be stuck in your head for days after. You’ve been warned. – Samantha Spector from American Songwriter

What would you expect from “America's Most Delicious Band"? Probably a pair of insanely hot legs dangling out the front, probably some buff hairy men holding up the back, probably some slightly risqué song titles, probably some dumb press release calling themselves “America's Most Delicious Band", but what else? On record, Nashville’s Worsties are peddling a surfy, punched-up garage rock, full of jerky guitars and questionable morals. Live, they’re something far more exciting. The energy goes up 200%, with lead singer Anna Worstell coming across like a hot sexualised version of Juliette Lewis, if you can imagine such a thing. --Diesel:U:Music

THE WORSTIES EP RELEASE PARTY On their latest EP Put Your Babe On, local pop rockers The Worsties come full force, ripping through five tracks of mean riffs, surfy guitar licks, FM-ready melodies and layers of ball-busting female vocals. Highlights include “Tone Deaf,” which kicks things off with the kind of razor-sharp angst and polished punk attitude that would sound right at home on the Warped tour, and “Drop Your Panties and Roll,” a refined spin on raw garage-rock grooves. The Worsties unleash it into the world this Saturday with a release party at The 5 Spot featuring fellow power poppers Mean Tambourines and local slicked-up rock ’n’ roll purists Gone City. 9 p.m. at The 5 Spot —SETH GRAVES Nashville Scene

Nashville post-punk band The Worsties are sure to have Uncle Pleasant’s rocking on Saturday night, when they stop to promote their new Put Your Babe On EP. The Worsties blend energetic post-punk with some dirty pop and garage rock on the new EP. Anna “Madame Worsty” Worstell fronts the band, and is responsible for The Worsties’ raw stage presence and in-your-face presentation. Jesse “Worsty” Worstell, delivers melting guitar riffs that combine the best of garage and punk influences for an explosive sound. LEO Weekly (Louisville, KY)

If you had to get up at 6am for work you should quit! :o) That's cool though, I usually have to be at work by 5am, so I know how it is. Ashley is a big fan of you now (and so is her 2 yr old daughter)! We will definitely be at your next show!

My name is K9 Kohl with WRFN-LP 98.8 FM a local non profit station located in Bellevue. We have very unique shows and offer our listeners shows the corporate stations do not. Such as music not played on corporate stations from not only their favorite bands but Indy bands also including local bands here in Middle Tn. On our show we let local bands come to the studio and play live on the air and play their cds also. On Oct 2nd I am hosting a benefit for our station to help us pay our bills etc so we can stay on the air. The benefit will be held at Limelight and will also be a Hot Rod and Motorcycle event. I like your music and would love if your band can play for us. I would also like to schedule you to be on my radio show which airs Tuesdays at 8pm.
