         "If you're searching for a 12 string to add another dimension to your band's sound at a reasonable price, the Waterstone TP-12 has it all..." |

First timers are never quite sure what to expect when they see a Lily Sparks show but after a few seconds it’s pretty clear: They rock. Flanked by glitter guitars that alternate between crunch and wail, the singer’s got a set of pipes that can go from fragility to fury in a heartbeat. These girls play hard-rocking, toe-tapping songs that’ll make you want to shout and sing along. Lead vocalist Niamh (pronounced “neev”) was born to sing. As a child in Ireland she sang traditional Irish songs, perfomed in choral groups and played lead roles in musical theater. She’s classically trained in voice and piano. She’s probably taller than you. But don’t let that scare you… Nikki 7 studied music and recording engineering at Berklee before settling in the Big Apple. Then she took the town by storm as the guitarist for several outrageous bands in including Cherry Red, Soap Opera Villain, Fluffy, and The Mynks. She plays solid rhythm and inventive leads. She probably has more tattoos than you. But don’t let that scare you… KG* learned the guitar by joining a punk band. They were featured in Details magazine before they played their first gig. The first time she ever played in public was at New York’s famous Continental Club with Jerry Nolan from the NY Dolls on drums. From there she went on to play in several outrageous bands including Glamourpuss, Cherry Red, Screaming Venus, and The Mynks. She probably has more guitars than you. But don’t let that scare you… The fact is, they’ve been together for about a year and they’ve gone from playing a couple of acoustic shows in bars to playing the main stage at Webster Hall in July! Even better, as the only female fronted band in the finals, they just WON the Emergenza Festival in New York! They'll be performing in Germany and recording their debut EP this summer. Check ‘em out before they leave the club scene. ‘Cuz that might be scary... InstrumentationNiamh - vox
