While the White Stripes — their most obvious comparison — were about controlled energy, Girl Tones are proudly imperfect.” – Rolling Stone
“I could try and weave together a blanket of colorful words to describe Girl Tones and how talented they are but I’m just gonna say Girl Tones is f***** dope, dude.” – VICE
“Classically trained sisters Kenzie and Laila are the brains behind this smart, fuzzy dose of pop rock sugar and spit – sort of like The Kills throwing a really fun party with a few riot grrrl stars. Fizzing with likeable energy but clever enough to keep you on your toes.” – Louder Sound
With much anticipation, high-energy rock duo Girl Tones today announce that their debut album Precious is set for release on November 6th. After locking listeners in the orbit of their bulldozing early singles and pocketing their fair share of early accolades, Girl Tones’ first full-length body of work was produced by Brad Shultz of Cage The Elephant and will be released on his label, Parallel Vision, in partnership with Big Loud Rock. It’s the sound of a band unapologetically embracing creative and personal freedom, never letting go, and encouraging you to do the same.
Proving once again that they aren’t messing around, the news is paired with the muscular new single ‘Pretty Face.’ Palm-muted guitar trails confident vocals across a snotty punkified verse as the song chronicles seeing through the shallowness when people’s masks begin to slip. Girl Tones is a band that never wants to do something just to be conventional. Listen to ‘Pretty Face’ HERE.
“So many people will hide who they are just to be accepted,” the band’s drummer Laila sighs. “Why try to fit in? What does it really add up to?”
“We tracked this one later in the process,” singer and guitarist Kenzie adds. “It’s heavy, and it puts a stamp on things. To me, it makes a declaration, ‘Listen, we’re not here to play’.”
Directed by Emily Buchwald and filmed in a wig store, the release comes alongside the single’s accompanying video. The result is a perfect step into the world of Girl Tones. Watch the video for ‘Pretty Face’ HERE.
Girl Tones have staked their claim as one of the most exciting new acts to see live and continue to defend it. Already this year, they have toured in support of Dexter and The Moonrocks, Peter McPoland and The Rare Occasions. With festival season well underway, they have performed at SXSW, Treefort, The Great Escape, Bottlerock, Outside Days and Bonnaroo with Just Like Heaven coming up next weekend.
Girl Tones will also set out on their first ever headline tour this November in support of their new album. Highlights include Mercury Lounge in New York City, DC9 in Washington, DC, and more. See all upcoming dates here.
As colorful as your favourite candy and as sharp as a trusty blade, Girl Tones create from contrast. The Bowling Green, KY duo—sisters Kenzie [vocals, guitar] and Laila [drums]—serve up sweet melodies and sour riffs that are aggressive, amplified, and addictive in the best way. When it comes to their songs, it’s impossible to consume just one without immediately wanting another. Not to mention, their bright outfits are as loud as the guitars (maybe louder).
As kids, they obsessed over music. Eventually, Kenzie traded cello for guitar, and Laila stepped away from piano and behind a drumkit. They went from penning songs in the woods to playing countless D.I.Y. shows in local venues around Kentucky. Gaining buzz, they caught the attention of one of Bowling Green’s favorite sons: Brad Shultz. Impressed off the bat, the Cage The Elephant co-founder and guitarist signed the group to his Parallel Vision label in partnership with Big Loud Rock. Girl Tones continued to gain traction with tunes like ‘Blame,’ ‘Cherry Picker,’ ‘I Know You Know,’ and ‘Again,’ which reeled in over 1.4 millions of streams. Simultaneously, the pair incited the applause of Rolling Stone, VICE, Consequence, PAPER, NME, DORK, SPIN, Flaunt, and more. Earlier this year, Girl Tones joined Amazon Music’s list of Artists to Watch for 2026.
Beyond canvasing the world with Cage The Elephant, they shared stages with Dexter and the Moonrocks, Silversun Pickups, The Velveteers, and hey, nothing., among others. Plus, they turned onlookers into converts with show stopping sets everywhere from Lollapalooza to Just Like Heaven. Now, Girl Tones come to life at full volume on their full-length debut LP, Precious (out November 6 via Parallel Vision/Big Loud Rock). It’s the sound of a band unapologetically embracing creative and personal freedom, never letting go, and encouraging you to do the same.
