Gorevette Announces Dates with The Donnas and Japanese Tour

03/02/2010
.
Gorevette have just confirmed dates with The Donnas on the east coast in March, and they hop on a jet and take over Japan in April & May.

Some things are just meant to be. When the legendary Nikki Corvette arrived with equally revered rock critic Robert Matheu at a Gore Gore Girls show in Los Angeles, he instinctively knew that she and bandleader Amy Gore would be natural compatriots.

Both women have toured the world, rejecting trends and gimmickry to play the authentic, powerful rock n' roll they've made their religion. They became friends that night, not industry associates but real pals. When Corvette relocated to her native Detroit for family reasons, she and Gore began to spend time together, spending hours talking about music while hanging out by the record player.

With members of each woman's bands in different cities, they originally conceived the idea of doing a punk cover band, playing their favorite songs from bands like the Buzzcocks and the Damned. That soon changed when Nikki brought her tune "Lustfully Yours" to the table. Amy Gore, a formidable guitarist and writer, began writing songs specifically for Nikki that carry on the 'Shangri-Las meets Ramones' v sound she is famous for while incorporating lyrics rejecting the artificiality of current feminine ideals ("Fake It") and making stand for the hedonistic fun of dancing, cars and staying up all night. "Rock n' roll, above all else, should be fun," said Gore.
