Hurricane Bertha

Hurricane Bertha is an all lesbian pan-genre band that appeals to audiences of every stripe in, or out as it may be, of the rainbow. Hurricane Bertha started out as a  tropical depression in 2003 with songwriting musicians Bad Little Bertha and Big Bad Bertha, Jenny Garguillo and Loie Mellerup respectively. As hurricanes do, Bertha picked up force and speed when they sucked up two additional songwriter musicians, Babe Magnet Bertha (Nichole Cote) and Baby Dyke Bertha (Amy Dolloff). A range of musical instruments are incorporated into their songs from accordion and banjo to kazoos and tap shoes. They play their original sweet songs, love songs, sad songs, rap songs, angry songs, and last but not least, their naughty bits, funny and irreverent sing-along-songs that require the warning, "parental discretion is advised". Buckle your seat-belts, weather the storm, and you too can proudly claim: "I survived Hurricane Bertha!"
