"Located somewhere between AC/DC and The Supremes, 'Waking up the Neighbourhood' is an explosive debut single from a band who might just be the next best thing to happen to UK rock since The Darkness. They're better looking too." - Kerrang 19.02.05 - Emap
Single of the week –‘Despite the success of The Darkness, no one else has taken advantage of the demand for big showy rock. But these 3 south London girls arrive with a soulful twist, an in-your-face tune and a singer with a lung capacity twice as big as Janis Joplin at her most full on’ **** - Independent Information 19.02.05 - Independent
It's Not easy being one of the opening bands, but the way the great unwashed, greatley hungover masses are cheering Planet of Women (KKKK) right now, it's unlikley their Tina Turner meets Black Crowes-style boogie-rock will be heard this early again. - Kerrang

Bio
God may have created man but the gods of rock created Planet of Women. Combining the power of AC/DC with the live show of Tina Turner's soul revue, their unique line up echoes the pop sensibilities of The Supremes but with the sound of Aerosmith and the attitude of The Runaways.
Rock ‘n’ Roll’s their lifeblood and living the rock ‘n’ roll life is something that lead singer Jade’s been doing all her life; her father was lead singer with notorious 60’s group the Riot Squad, alongside Mitch Mitchell (Jimi Hendrix Experience) and Davie Jones (before he called himself Bowie). The stories her father told her as a young girl, like performing with Hendrix and auditioning for Apple (McCartney making the tea!), shaped both her musical influences and her ambitions. Jade spotted Nina singing in a support band one night and the final piece of the jigsaw fell into place when Jolene stumbled upon the band whilst rehearsing in the next room.
‘Waking Up The Neighbourhood’ is the bands first single, produced by Ace (ex skunk Anansie) & mixed by Dan Sprigg (Lostprophets), it’s an explosive anthem featuring Jade’s searing, Joplin-esque vocals and is guaranteed to be the most exciting single to kick off the new year. its done fantastically well reaching #9 in the rock singles chart and staying in the top 30 here for 4 weeks. Getting played by xfm, Total Rock, 6 music, Radio 2, BBC London and lots of other regional stations. The video has also been played on scuzz a number of times. Some great reviews as well.
