Badass Women Band

“The Badass Women Band might just be the most aptly named band I’ve ever heard.Stellar, in every respect. They are at once, an epic string-band, rocking Americana group, and symphonic choir,everything from a whisper to a roar!”
– Dan Bracken, Wheatland Music Festival

“This show is everything you hope it to be. A band of badass women sharing both their powerful showmanship paired with music and stories that capture the breadth of the human experience.”
– Caroline Barlow, Artistic Director, Blissfest

What began as an outlet for Annie Capps’ solo project (“How Can I Say This?”) to be celebrated and performed live with some exceptionally talented women, at a handful of venues around Michigan, grew into a concept that caught a bit of a buzz and before long, there were requests to book the band and keep this train rolling. Capps, however, was just one of several songwriters in the group so with a strong desire to spotlight the others, the Badass Women Band (BWB) was formed to do just that.

This band of powerhouse female artists fuses each member’s individual rockin’, folky, funky, sensibilities for an unforgettable and dynamic collaboration. Featuring Annie Bacon (vocals, guitar, bass), Annie Capps (vocals, guitar, banjo), Sara Gibson (cell0), Anne Heaton (vocals, piano), Carolyn Koebel (vocals, drums/percussion), Cori Somers (violin) and Julianna Wilson (vocals/bass), the Badass Women Band is a force to be reckoned with. Experience a variety show filled with soulful tunes and empowering performances that will keep you grooving, thinking, and feeling deeply.
