COLLEEN GREEN


Fall tour announced! And she’s covering all the bases so no excuses. Her first full album, Milo Goes to Compton (a spin on the Descendents’ Milo Goes to College) was released last February by Art Fag Recordings and includes covers of I Will Follow Him originally by Little Peggy March in 1963, the Descendents’ Good Good Things (one of my old favorites) and the Ramones’ I Wanna Be Sedated (sorta, it’s called I Wanna Be Degraded and it’s fuzzy and really only a half cover.) The rest of the songs are lo-fi garage pop about her weed and her crushes. The vocals are sweet and distant and the beats are a blast. Mostly she’s just so coool. She’s the indie grrrl of yr dreams if there ever was one. She even draws comics!!! <3

I can’t wait to see her live and hear tracks from Milo, wacky covers, and hopefully some EP B-sides (Y Do You Call Me especially!)
