KSM
Biography: The Runaways, The Go-Gos and the Bangles... Those cutting edge all-girl groups had a profound influence on what made a rock band and who could play in one. KSM may not be the first all-girl rock band- but they are a force that will definitely fit in the same conversation as many of the iconic female bands before them. They are young but talented beyond their years with no pretense -- and they rock.
When it comes to making music, Shelby (lead vocals & guitar), Katie (guitar & vocals) Shae (lead guitar), Sophia (bass) and Kate (drums), are a wrecking crew unto themselves. They sing of the world they know -- boys, dating, texting, playing and partying -- yet they also bring a surprising measure of depth to their songs.
Says lead singer Shelby, "Being all girl, all teen, we're usually pre-judged. People don't expect that much, but we usually convince the audience that we're a legit rock band, not just a 'chick band.' KSM...5 girls taking music into their own hands and ready to show their generation what girl power is all about.
