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.
