Not your typical NYC band: Antigone Rising brings country pop to Rockwood Music Hall on 12.12

With a band this catchy, it’s fairly remarkable that Antigone Rising aren’t already a household name. After all, no less than Rob Thomas of Matchbox 20 co-wrote the leading single (‘Don’t Look Back’) from their 2005 debut ‘From the Ground Up.’ The all-female country-rock quartet seems tailor-made to deliver their simple message of hard living, hot line-dancing, and very catchy crooning – is this really a NYC band?

See the ladies get themselves into a bit of trouble in the video to their latest single ‘That Was the Whiskey’ below, and watch them when they take the stage at Rockwood Music Hall next Thursday, December 12th for the ladies’ unique Christmas Twist Concert – check out their latest Christmas inspired single ‘Santa, You Owe Me’ here. – Mike Levine (@Goldnuggets)
