Girl In A Coma
as seen on myspace
mon 8/13/2007
You've probably never heard of San Antonio power trio Girl In A Coma but chances are you will hear about them again and again in the coming years. Comprised of Jenn Alva on bass and sisters Nina and Phanie Diaz on guitar/vocals and drums, respectively, these girls are the real deal: talented, driven and unexpected.
Nineteen year-old Nina's sultry voice has already earned her credible comparisons to legendary female vocalists like Chrissie Hynde and Siouxsie Sioux, but it's another comparison that comes closest to her rich, pleading falsetto: "the female Morrissey." Those similarities didn't escape longtime Morrissey guitarist Boz Boorer, who flew the girls to London so they could record their first demos. Equally impressed was OG girl-rocker Joan Jett, who offered to sign the trio to her indie label, Blackheart Records, after seeing the girls perform live. They did.
The humble Texans released their debut, Both Before I'm Gone, earlier this year and are currently playing every gig they can get – from malls to the Warped Tour.

honestly, i'm not into the whole local music scene. frankly due to all the locals bands sounding EXACTLY the same, or too be with the "in crowd," that is until i heard of Girl in a Coma (which was about 4 or 5 years ago). Its inspiring to see musicians that are in it for just that....music and being able to share it with others on stage. i've had the privilege to see them live twice, and they seize to amaze me. i wish them the best of luck, and i demand you guys to play their video for Clumsy Sky.

Love, love, love this band. "Both Before I'm Gone" is one of the best debut albums I have ever heard. I saw them play live at a little bar in San Marcos and it was truly a life-changing experience.

i've said it before, and i'll keep on saying it to anyone who will listen: Girl In A Coma's Blackheart debut is hands down *the best record* i have heard all year. they are one of the best bands in the US right now.
