Women That Rock NYC: Lisa Bianco

Lisa Bianco: May 9, 2011 @ Bowery Electric, New York, NY


Third on the bill at the Women That Rock NYC show was Lisa Bianco. She came armed with a new band, bassist Kenny Aaronson, drummer Lou Petto and for one song Kathy Zimmer helping out on vocals. I haven't had the chance to catch Biano play for a while so it was a pleasure to see her again. Anyone who knows me knows that I have an appreciation for chicks that rock hard. And folks, that's just what Bianco does! The song that first drew me to Biano's work was "Sideways" and I still love it. But, if you've ever seen her play "Sun Glare" then you've likely had one of those, holy hell, sweet mercy, orgasmic brain fuck moments.

Bianco is a personable performer with buckets of talent. On this night it seemed like she rocked even harder then when I last saw her. She did slow things down a notch when she did an awesome solo version of "Cruel Summer." Do yourself a favor and check her out when you get the chance.

Second up in the line-up of the Women That Rock NYC show this past Monday was Julia Weldon. Weldon, accompanied herself on acoustic guitar. Her laid back, unassuming style was rather disarming but very pleasant.

Christina LaRocca kicked things off Monday night at the Women That Rock NYC show at LES venue Bowery Electric. LaRocca took the stage to play a solo set that included a heavy version of "Piece of My Heart," a song that became well known and associated with late rocker Janis Joplin when Big Brother and the Holding Company covered it. It was a good set and you should check LaRocca out if you get the chance.
