Dressy Bessy // Potty Mouth // Colleen Green
Dressy Bessy is an indie rock band from Denver, Colorado led by songwriter, guitarist, and vocalist, Tammy Ealom. The band is associated with the Elephant Six Recording Company and shares guitarist John Hill with The Apples in Stereo.
Dressy Bessy's first full-length release Pink Hearts, Yellow Moons (1999) was a mixture of beat group drums, infectious songs, and the odd burst of harmonium. Further releases included California EP (2000), Sound Go Round (2002), and 2003's Dressy Bessy, which incorporated a harder guitar sound. These albums were initially released on Kindercore Records of Athens, Georgia.
In 2005, the band signed to Transdreamer Records and recorded their fourth album, Electrified. The band released Holler and Stomp in 2008. Dressy Bessy released Kingsized on Yep Roc Records (CD, LP) and Burger Records (CS) in 2016, and their latest album will again be released on Yep Roc and Burger in early 2019.

Potty Mouth is a Western Massachusetts pop-punk band that formed in 2011 at Smith College. The band's original lineup was
Potty Mouth was formed by Ally Einbinder and Phoebe Harris, two Smith College students, in 2011. According to Einbinder, Harris thought of the band's name while on the toilet, unaware of the Bratmobile album of the same name.
In 2013, Potty Mouth released their first full-length album, Hell Bent, to positive reviews from critics. In 2015, they released a self-titled EP, which was recorded without Harris, who had departed from the band. During this time, they made a distribution deal with Alternative Distribution Alliance and gained attention from Atlantic Records. The band continued to tour in 2016, supporting Beach Slang's spring tour. In July, the band, along with new guitarist Aurore Ounjian, played at Lollapalooza, and two years later, they opened for The Go-Gos at the Fox Theatre in Oakland, California.
Their second album Snafu was released on March 1, 2019, with two singles - 22 and Starry Eyes - issued in January and February.
Einbinder and Weems have expressed disapproval of the labeling of the band as riot grrrl, speculating that the association may have been due to the low fidelity of their early recordings. Pitchfork reviewers compare the band's sound to pop-punk and post-punk with vestiges of surf music.
