BeBe chats with Kristen Ellis- Henderson, founding member of ANTIGONE RISING (Kristen is also the wife of Glaad Prez, Sarah Ellis-Henderson) , the self-described alt-rock band composed of sisters Kristen Ellis-Henderson (bass guitar, vocals) and Cathy Henderson (lead guitar, vocals), Nini Camps (rhythm guitar, vocals) and Dena Tauriello (drums). Theyhave established themselves, through their musicianship, hard work and just plain likeability, as a force of musical nature. Quite an accomplishment for an all lesbian alt-country rock female band that while part of the growing chorus of out voices contributing to the slow walk toward country music embracing LGBT individuals, is still up against a predominantly conservative industry. BeBe and Kristen talk about the bands new EP Whiskey & Wine, Vol 2 released in early March, listen in on a few of the EPs tunes including current anthem "Game Changer", and explore why there aren't more self-sustaining all-female bands. www.antigonerising.com
