The Pretty Reckless Music Gig


The Pretty Reckless has certainly made headlines for themselves over the last year. Being dubbed as a terrible role model for her young fans, lead singer Taylor Momsen has certainly been the center of attention recently.

Despite this however, the bands music is very good! This alternative American rock band from New York released their debut single"Make Me Wanna Die" on May 13th 2010. This single was followed by the release of their debut album "Light Me Up" on August 30th.

Bands similar to the Pretty Reckless include Paramore, Avril Lavigne, and Ke$ha.

The Pretty Reckless although new to the music scene, have received a lot of great reviews for their gigs. Lead singer, Taylor Momsen oozes confidence when she sings and always puts a tremendous amount of enthusiasm into all her performances.It should be added however, the crowd is usually made up of mostly 12-20 year old screaming female fans!

A set list for one of their shows was: Since You’re Gone, Miss Nothing, Light Me Up, Zombie, Goin’ Down, Just Tonight, My Medecine, Like A Stone, Factory Girl, Islands/I Love The Way You Lie (acoustic), Nothing Left To Lose (acoustic), Super Sonic/Time Is Running Out, Make Me Wanna Die.

If you are looking for a night of awesome live rock music from an extremely talented 17yr old than this is a gig for you.
