Girlfriends are a trashy indie-punk three piece from Boston that make me think of The Pixies and The Moldy Peaches. They have a free two track EP called "Good To Be true" available to download for free from their Bandcamp page (one is a Vaselines cover!) and two EPs to buy real cheap.
It's all really catchy stuff that has been stuck in my head for months! They also have a fun and constantly updated tour Tumblr here.
They are on a massive self booked tour around the U.S at the moment with Colleen Green.
Colleen Green is a one woman band from Oakland California who sings, plays electric guitar over a drum machine and generally make a great lo-fi garage punk sound. Kind of where the Anti-folk sound went after all the original bands started going in different directions and being over produced by hippies.
She has various tapes and Cds available from her Myspace and I guess from all her shows!
The tour is hitting up Wisconsin, Chicago, Ohio, Kentucky, New Jersey, Brooklyn, and loads of over places the listing are on both bands Myspace pages.
