Looking for Black Women in Rock

Hi. I'm working on a documentary about black women in rock. If you fit the bill or know of a black woman who performs rock, hit me up. You can view the trailer on my profile or go to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WKr7ESILHQQ

Hi,

Are you looking for folks who are in bands now or who have been? I was in the first all-girl punk rock band in my hometown in VA (I'm in Portland, OR now). I have cd, photos, print, etc. but sadly no video of us performing.

I've played drums off and on for the last 15 years whenever I could crook my way into a situation. If this is something that is in line with your project feel free to send me a message.

Regardless, I think the project sounds rad and I wish you luck!

I am looking for people who are performing now. But I would be interested in knowing more about your story. If you are still a performer or fan please join us at http://niceandrough.com for updates on the film and to be a part of this new community that celebrates black women in rock. You can share your story and post your photos as well. Check it out!

You should look up Freda Rente on Facebook, Sheila. She plays currently. She is in the Black Punk Rockers group there, that's how I first heard about her.

Shea Rose is a good suggestion. she def identifies as part rock... she has equal parts soul, hip-hop and rock n roll.
