This NYC duo dishes out a sexually-charged mix of socially conscious and politically daring performance art -- laced with biting wit and a provocative twist -- on this 2001 debut on Righteous Babe (Ani's label). Or as they describe it, 'tribal chick hoedown funk poetry with a political wedge and bass line edge.' Between them they play 10 instruments, from violin and African drums to tap shoes, nails and ukelele. Their words are smart and multi-layered... as political as punk, and more personal than your roll-on. Ani lends vocal harmonies and electric guitar to the grrrls' recipe for a robust gumbo of mayhem.
