Belltown Yacht Club Presents: Thelma & The Sleaze with Future Tense and Kathy Moore Super Power Trio
Thelma and The Sleaze
Thelma and the Sleaze is an independent all-female, queer southern rock band from Nashville, Tennessee. The group is the brainchild of lead vocalist and guitar player Lauren "LG" Gilbert and features an evolving cast of A-team players to back her up for an unforgettable live experience.
LG is the embodiment of hustle. As the driving force behind Thelma and The Sleaze, she is the songwriter, the visionary, the take-no-shit-from-anyone front woman that is single handedly keeping rock and roll alive. Thelma and The Sleaze has been touring the US for years building a legion of fans, affectionally called her creepers.
The growing social media presence, the hit podcast, the features with Yamaha Guitars are really all the result of her incredible songwriting, visceral guitar playing, and the guts to deliver on her vision of what Rock and Roll should be.
LG has also launched two successful seasons of their Podcast “Queen of Shit Mountain”. Each episode features legendary musicians such as Tanya Tucker, Brittany Howard, Juliana Hatfield, Kate Pierson, Lori Barbero, Patty Schemel, Mary Ramirez and Margo Price.
Future Tense
Seattle’s own rock and roll band, Future Tense, will shred your face and then take you out to dinner. Featuring , members of Deadkill, Nightmare Fortress, Absolute Monarchs, Titpig and Dryland.
Kathy Moore Super Power Trio
Expert guitarist Kathy Moore leads two musical lives. In one, she’s the support system, riding shotgun with her devilishly delightful licks as a singer drives, melting faces. In the other, however, Moore fronts the show, bringing her Prog-Punk ethic center stage - and this is very much the case in her latest creative incarnation: the Kathy Moore Super Power Trio.
Comprised of the mad scientist Moore on guitar, steady-yet-nimble bassist Alyssa Martini and thunderous drummer Faith Stankevich, all of whom are Seattle stalwarts, the Kathy Moore Super Power Trio will release its debut record, I Won’t Let The End Of The World Bring Me Down, in fall 2020.
The album, forceful and tight, is as much a scream into the ether as it is a piece of sonic entertainment. On the record, Moore, who was praised by Pearl Jam guitarist Mike McCready for her wisdom and six-string abilities during a recent collaboration, will demonstrate the strength and pride she’s earned from playing music, all while working with two equally talented Emerald City standouts.
Together, the members of the Kathy Moore Power Trio are set to raise eyebrows, expectations and standards.
