BookaBandMan Presents: Kathy's Pub Mid- May Music Fest 7pm Lola Montez Band (Nashville) 10:30pm The Brothers Footman (Indianapolis) LOLA MONTEZ: A Tinder date gone wrong. A wife who dreads her murder. Confessions of a jilted lover, wasted youth and surreal erotica. No subject matter is out of bounds for NASHVILLE rock band LOLA MONTEZ. Fresh off the recording of their debut release, the band is intent on hitting a raw nerve with music fans far and wide. Singer and frontwoman, Inga Rudin, toured previously with the band NAKED BEGGARS, which featured Eric Brittingham and Jeff LaBar of CINDERELLA. Rudin says, “We like to hear each other out, not judge, and let the music flow.” This is echoed in the diverse sound of the group, also consisting of guitarist Blake Scopino and former SKINNY MOLLY/BLACKFOOT drummer Kurt Pietro. Pissed-off punk riffs, brazen vocal belts and raucous drums deliver, as do jangly guitars and syncopated beats woven through wide-open choruses. Lola asserts plenty of muscle but with its pop sensibilities firmly in tow. You get hooks alongside a brooding, drop-tuned guitar coated with an icy edge. For this band, the attitude is in the authenticity. The origins of Lola can be traced to casual encounters and coincidences over several years within Nashville’s burgeoning music scene. What used to be friendly acquaintances pursuing separate projects eventually became fiercely committed bandmates sharing in the thrill of musical co-creation. “We aren't just three people who have come together by accident,” says Rudin. “It's kismet. We listen. We react and become one. We are one.” ### Connect at Facebook.com/lolamontezband/ and Lolamontezband.com to get all the latest news, music and show dates as they become available. "If I were to describe [Inga] as a frontwoman, I would describe her as a female Iggy Pop." Todd Ögren-Brooks Keyboards/Vocals, Rival Sons “The stuff sounds great...Star, Wife & App in particular I thought had a cool vibe.” Tom Keifer Vocals/Guitar, Tom Keifer, Cinderella “Totally dig it, my favorite thing is that it doesn't sound like everything or anything else. Big kudos on that. [On “App”] I would marry this song in my driveway right now...and change MY last name.” Wayne Swinny Guitar, Saliva “Absolutely killer…amazing and fresh-sounding.” Kelly Keagy Drums/Vocals, Night Ranger BROTHERS FOOTMAN: Every once in a great while the stars align to bring together an abundance of talent, dedication, and commitment to excellence; such is the case with Dikembe, Gerald, Micah, Joshua Footman, and Zach Craft. Their breakout hit Clear Country Sky seems to have struck the right chords and challenges musical barriers that dictate they be boxed into a particular sound or genre of music. From the initial rifts of the acoustic guitar you get the sense that Country Sky will be an instant classic. Add to that the unique and blended harmonies of the brothers and before you know it, you’re hooked by the catchy, addictive lyrics. They released their single and video Lil Mo' Time April 20th 2018. Their second single "Clear Country Sky" released on June 4th 2018 in advance of their performances at CMA Fest in Nashville, TN. They are set to hit the studio early February 2019 to finish recording and will release the full length album by the end of 2019.
