Eva Destruction
 
Enjoy SHOCKING new arrangements of old favorites from the Sex Pistols to Black Flag as Eva Destruction and Her Big Band blow the dust off mosh pit standards to uncover the melodies within. This handsome duo combine all the raucousness of punk rock with the intimacy of traditional, theatrical cabaret. Allow yourself to be lulled by their smooth and sultry reinterpretations of the songs that inspired the alternative, emo and derivative, trust-fund baby, garage-pop that you hear today. Eva is a trained performer who brings vocal range and dynamics to gritty numbers like, "I Wanna Be Your Dog" and "Barbed-wire Love". You'll be surprised by the structure and lyrics you've never heard before in the songs you thought you knew by heart (if you've ever accessorized with safety pins, that is). Accompanied by her "big band", the incandescent, Gary Indiana, Eva Destruction delivers all of the trash with none of the thrash. If you've ever duct-taped your shoes or taken Henry Rollins seriously, this is the act for you. If you haven't, then you missed out on all the fun, pinhead.
