The Pretty Reckless Unleash Acoustic Fury at Amoeba Records
In a blistering display of musical prowess, THE PRETTY RECKLESS took to the intimate stage of Amoeba Records on July 1 to share an acoustic performance that left fans craving more. Captured in its entirety by Jim's Rock Shots on YouTube, this set showcases the band's ability to blend vulnerability with rock 'n' roll grit.
The setlist was a masterclass in storytelling, featuring tracks like the haunting "Going To Hell" and the evocative "Make Me Wanna Die." Each song, from the soulful "Harley Darling" to the anthemic cover of Brinsley Schwarz's classic, "(What's So Funny 'Bout) Peace, Love And Understanding," resonated with raw emotion and grit, proving that even in an acoustic setting, THE PRETTY RECKLESS is a force to be reckoned with.
With their latest album, "Dear God," released just days prior on June 26 via Fearless Records, the band is riding a wave of momentum. Fueled by electrifying singles like "Love Me"—a track that packs an emotional punch—and the chart-topping "For I Am Death," which stands as their eighth Mainstream Rock Radio No. 1, the band is redefining their sound while remaining fiercely authentic.
On the horizon is their much-anticipated "Dear God" headlining tour, a testament to their relentless dedication to their craft. After an epic two-year trek with AC/DC on the "Power Up" tour, the band is ready to unleash their electrifying stage presence worldwide.
The past year has been nothing short of legendary for THE PRETTY RECKLESS. From a standout performance at the prestigious MusiCares Person Of The Year Gala, where frontwoman Taylor Momsen honored icons like Mariah Carey alongside the FOO FIGHTERS, to an unforgettable induction ceremony at the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame with SOUNDGARDEN, the band continues to carve their name into the annals of rock history. Their holiday EP, "Taylor Momsen's Pretty Reckless Christmas," featuring a reimagined classic, hit No. 1 on the Billboard Hot Hard Rock Songs chart, igniting nostalgia among fans and showcasing the band's unstoppable evolution.
