Official
"The Bats" Press Release Thingie:
Tired
of only dreaming of being Linda Ronstadt or Bonnie Raitt, the
five middle-aged women in The Bats, a "mostly female"
band of wild women and song, have put together something unique
in Lexington: a rock 'n' roll cabaret act.
Their material ranges from the comic to the sublime; they
cover artists from Sheryl Crow to Christine Lavin; they sing of
love lost, weight gained, and bargains bought. They even tap
dance to Wild Thing.
No other band has quite their range of talents,
age-related physical limitations, or hormone fluctuations!
Vocalists
Missy Johnston, Marilyn Robie, and Susan Thomas blend beautiful
harmonies into entertaining and hilarious songs and patter.
Melanie Johnson, veteran rock guitarist and songwriter,
provides vocals and shy enthusiasm.
Marianne Sherman adds earthy humor and a booming bass
line. And
three very brave men--Craig Cornwell on drums, Jim Gleason on
guitar, and Harold Sherman on keyboards--fight for sexual
equality as they back up these five feisty women.
Perfect
for a girls' night out or a date with that sensitive new age
guy, The Bats will move you, make you laugh, and get you up
dancing.
