Their last album “DRIVEN” is full of licks and hits harking back to the glory years of AC/DC, QOTSA, KISS, and MOTÖRHEAD, but with an added fuel injection of Helsinki attitude and femme fatale vocals that‘ll blow your mind.
With this, the BARBIES have simultaneously created their own style and revitalized the genre. The new album is no departure from the bands’ roots but has a new youthful injection with new guitarist Heidi Meri. The new album has nine high octane rock n roll classics. The Barbs are back!
Live, these girls really come into their own. Headline shows up and down the country and opening slots for NEW YORK DOLLS and WASP (to name just a few) have earned them a reputation as energetic, unpredictable, and uncompromising, but always fun and entertaining.
For the BARBE-Q-BARBIES the party doesn‘t stop. They live and breathe rock, punk, sleaze and trash. Expect to get your mind blown!
They will be hitting the road for a selection of dates which you can catch below;
