Website: http://www.womenrock.org/ FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE info@womenrock.org WOMEN IN ROCK SHOWCASE "the premiere music conference showcase designed exclusively for independent female performing musicians" Daisy Rock Guitars presents the 4th Annual Women In Rock showcase at The Lucky Lounge, 209 W. 5th on Saturday, March 20th from 5:00 to 11:00pm in Austin's downtown loft district. The evening will consist of electric performances by female performing artists from all over the country!

There will be a raffle contest to win a brand new Daisy Rock Guitar at night's end. For more info on this annual extravaganza of women in rock, email: info@womenrock.org or visit the website: www.womenrock.org ** more special guests to be announced ** 10:00 Sassafrass Supporting their mission to do whatever it takes to inspire girls to play guitar and enjoy music, the crew at Daisy Rock Guitars formed their band Sassafrass during an artist endorsement excursion at the 2003 music conference in Austin. The company's Founder & President - Tish Ciravolo - defines the group's punk influenced sound with her rock solid, no-nonsense kick-your-ass-with-a-side-of-attitude driven bass playing. Daisy Rock co-partner Ron Manus pushes his heavily distorted screeching guitar sound to the edge of the musical universe, adding an electric energy to the mix that would leave Edison himself feeling jealous. Daisy Rock's Director of PR - Rich Lackowski - completes the trio with solid, tasty drumming that'll leave you feeling sexier than a spoonful of Tiramisu and crème Brule with a cherry on top. Together, they are an unstoppable force taking punk-rock to new majestic levels of twitching and tearing that'll leave you wondering if there's anything else that could ever pack as much distortion per square inch into your body as Sassafrass. The band will raffle a Daisy Rock electric guitar at the end of their set. www.daisyrock.com 9:00 The Butchies are from North Carolina and cite Nirvana, Blondie, and The Donnas as among their most common comparisons of music style. The Butchies will be lighting up the Lucky Lounge with their own brand of what they call (punk) rock pop candy - fun and intense at the same time! The Butchies performed on Amy Ray's "Stag" album, as well as her band during the supporting Stag tour. Check out this fantastic band's website! They have a new release coming out and will be kicking off their 2004 tour with us! www.thebutchies.com 8:00 Matson Belle has already made its mark on Austin's dynamic music scene.
