Australian indie act Girl and Girl has a traditional rock band origin story, with one exception. Vocalist Kai James and guitarist Jayden Williams started off jamming in the garage ... and then James' aunt, Melissa, asked to sit in on drums.
Realizing it's a blessing to have reliable bandmates, James and Williams begged her to stay and "Aunt Liss" became a permanent member of the band. Along with bassist Fraser Bell, the four-piece just released its debut album, Call A Doctor. It's an appropriate title, because there's an urgency to these songs.
Today, we’ve got a mini-concert by Girl and Girl recorded live at the Neptune Theater in Seattle. Enjoy.
