Misstallica On Tour

• 19th Apr 2010

Hailed as one of the Top 5 ‘All Girl Tribute Acts You Can’t Miss’ by Gibson.com, MISSTALLICA embark on their first ever international dates this May. MISSTALLICA are touted as giving the legendary act a run for the money with their rocking live show, and are set to take the UK by storm with this tour, starting in O2 Academy2 Sheffield on Saturday 22 May.

Formed in 2008, by drummer and former tennis prodigy, Kaleen Reading and guitarist / vocalist Gina Randazzo; the pair were united after Kaleen posted an ad looking for “a sick metal chick to rock out with”. When the two finally met and began jamming the chemistry was perfect and thus their love of sweet metal brought them together.

Unknown to Gina at the time, Kaleen already played in a band called Queen Diamond, The World’s Only – an all female tribute (probably the only!) to King Diamond. With Gina already blessed with Hetfield in her heart and the fire of hell in her soul, the wheels were turning for an all female tribute to the mighty Metallica. With former Queen Diamond members Gigi Gleason on guitar and Teddi Tarno picking up the bass, the band was complete.

With the ultimate rock gene embedded in this acclaimed four piece, on stage Gina Randazzo is Vajay-James Hetfield, Gigi Gleason is Kirk Hamvagina, Teddi Tarnoff is Clit Burton and Kaleen Reading is LARiSa Ballswitch.

MISTALLICA are ready to wreak metal madness across the UK. All sceptics be prepared for a good ass-kicking and metal friends come and rejoice in the only way you know how – by rocking out!
