Riot Grrrl with a tendency for the blues all the way from GermanyGinger Wade (vox/guitar) – the brassy blonde with a punk rock attitude and an oversized voice to match. Spawned from New York City’s RiotGrrl underground, Ginger has evolved into a global nomad with a scratchy acoustic guitar, her style spanning catchy pop tunes, swampy blues, and primal rock ‘n’ roll. Her songs deal with sex and obsession, desire and rage,condensed to two and half minutes each and drawn from the sometimes-bumpy road of her travels. Musical heroes?Iggy Pop, Patti as well as Bessie Smith, Aimee Mann, Debbie Harry oh so many more. Whether busking on the street or on stages large or small, Ginger plays original songs and covers with a self-depreciating sense of humor that comes from not taking any of this too seriously.
Ginger studied classical and jazz piano until the day that she bought her first electric guitar to form a band with a pair of teenage girlfriends. "The Harlots" were active in the Riot-Grrrl scene and played in venues throughout New York City. Since then she has played in more bands than any of us can remember. In addition to performing as asolo singer/songwriter (with or without band), Ginger also performswith folkpunk trio The Leroys , accordion/guitar duo Ladies Rock Night, sings for the stonkerpunk band BRONTIAK , and is the bassist and keyboardist for Reu Bruhn Combo .
