Most bands capitalize on fads and gimmicks, chasing whatever is popular and hot, jumping from one genre to the next, but every now and then a band is able to exist and thrive because they do the exact opposite.

Bands like The Replacements, The Smoking Popes, Superchunk, Soul Asylum, and even The Get Up Kids have been able to connect to a mainstream audience because they wrote genuine, honest songs that spoke to people in a refreshing, straight forward manner. When these bands come along it’s refreshing and they’re welcomed with open arms and open ears. Lansing, Michigan’s Cheap Girls are one of these bands.

For their latest and third full length ‘Giant Orange’, the band enlisted Against Me! frontman Tom Gabel to produce the record. The album was recorded in Tom’s brand new studio, Total Treble Studio, a converted post office in Florida, and the result is 10 loud hard rock anthems that are sure to be listened to and appreciated by current and future generations of music lovers.

As much as Cheap Girls shine in the studio, they’re also no strangers to the road. Playing over 150 shows last year, touring alongside Against Me!, Lemuria, The Menzingers, Laura Stevenson and The Cans and many more. To support the initial release of ‘Giant Orange’, Cheap Girls will be doing a 26 date headline tour. Cheap Girls aren’t looking to change your life, they’re just looking to write the soundtrack to it.
