On the bill we have the formidable female powerhouse known as bring a depth of personal insight and performing experience to their politically astute hard rock/funk songcraft. The Oakland-based quartet—featuring bassist/vocalist , guitarist/vocalists , Shelley Doty, and drummer/vocalist —deliver impressionable original tunes which reflect the musicians’ deeply-held ideals and wide-ranging musical aesthetic, with tight harmonies, shredding guitar solos and searing lead vocals.

Upon seeing Skip The Needle’s live performance video for the title track “We Ain’t Never Going Back,” legendary bass phenom shared the video on Facebook commenting, “Are Women Rockin’ Harder now?”

Or, as one observer recently said, “If Sly Stone, Jimi Hendrix, Chrissie Hynde, and Chaka Khan all jammed together, this band would be the result. Skip The Needle is reckless, eclectic, fearless and fun, dedicated to love, and like nothing you’ve ever heard before.” Skip The Needle Rocks the Love.
