The punk rock band The Beat Dolls are quite the team. Although The Beat Dolls have been together as a band for almost seven years, Angie Munsey has only been playing with Barry Anderson and Mike Reisch for four. The three came together when Barry and Mike answered Angie's ad on Craigslist.
When I asked The Beat Dolls where they play live, Angie laughed and exclaimed, "Anywhere that will have us! We play all over Austin." If you live near Austin, TX, you can probably hear The Beat Dolls punk sound rising out of such clubs as The Legendary White Swan, Bull McCabe's, Head Hunters (aka Metal and Lace), Spinners, Beerland, Antone's and Emo's.
He also advises bands to play local and get their name out there, whether you are going to be paid or not. That could lead to a tour and get your name out to an even broader audience.
The next step is to raise the funds to produce their next CD. The Beat Dolls are in the process making a video for a fundraiser campaign to raise money to produce a full-length CD.
