Female-Fronted Friday: Little Evil

When: Founded January 2023

Where: Iowa

Genre: Hard rock

FFO: The Pretenders, No Doubt, Garbage

Little Evil consists of vocalist Nico Merschman, bassist Alexxx Bentzinger, guitarist Bryer Meierotto, and drummer Tim Wardlow. This dynamic quartet classifies themselves as “hard rock” or “river rock,” but they do not limit themselves to those labels. Listening to them, you will find yourself moved by a ballad, pumped by a punk-tinged anthem, swaying to a bluesy track with a haunting atmosphere, or headbanging to a raw rock song!

You can listen to their latest single, “Graveyard Kisses,” along with a few other releases, down below. Make sure you check out their socials for upcoming live shows, music news, and much more!

“Graveyard Kisses”

“Little Devil”

“Riverview”

“Fortify”
