Godmothers of Chick Rock
Leave it to my lifelong cool dude friend Billy to turn me on to Fanny, an unsung pioneering all girl band started by Filipino-American sisters June and Jean Millington.
While The (equally awesome) Runaways are better remembered and idolized, Fanny came first. Less explicitly “sexy” and “tough girl” too, these women are all long haired beauty and strong, serious rock and roll – sans manufacturing.
David Bowie is a huge fan and you can learn all about them on their website.
But what do you think?
