Momsen Fronted Rock Band, The Pretty Reckless, Secures Support Spot On The Veronicas North American Tour.
Gossip Girl Star Releases Debut CD this Fall. Interscope Records signed 15 year-old singer -songwriter Taylor Momsen, star of The CW’s popular television series, Gossip Girl. The Momsen fronted rock band, The Pretty Reckless are scheduled to release their full length debut cd this fall. The Pretty Reckless will support The Veronicas on the road commencing May 9 in Nashville, TN.
Momsen, who has been recording in Los Angeles, Nashville and New York, shares album writer credits with Toby Gad (Fergie, Beyonce, The Veronicas), James Michael (Alanis Morissette, Motley Crue) and Kato Khandwala (Paramore, Morningwood). In addition to co-writing all the songs, Momsen fronts the band, singing lead vocals.
“Taylor has an incredible presence and when she decided to make Interscope her musical home we were thrilled,” said Jimmy Iovine, Chairman of Interscope Geffen A&M Records. “I’m so excited to be among the talented and respected artists signed to Interscope Records. Partnering with Jimmy Iovine is an honor.“
Momsen also signed to powerhouse management company, DAS Communications, Ltd who broke The Black Eyed Peas, Fergie, The Fugees and John Legend.
“Rock singer/songwriters like Taylor don’t come around very often. Taylor is an artist with a genuine voice and a unique point of view. DAS is proud to add her to the list of superstar artists that have been managed by our company,” says David Sonenberg, President of DAS Communications.
Momsen, who stars as Jenny Humphrey in Gossip Girl, began acting professionally at age three. In 2000 Taylor starred as Cindy Lou Who in How The Grinch Stole Christmas. Recently Taylor was named one of the most beautiful people in the world in People Magazine.

Are there any members of the Gossip Girl cast who don’t have an album coming out?
Ed Westwick and Leighton Meester have both been involved in musical projects recently — and now Taylor Momsen is the latest of their co-stars to pack up her microphone and take to the road. The 15-year-old fashionista, who plays Jenny Humphrey on the hit show, has officially announced that she’ll be taking her band, The Pretty Reckless, on a 24 date tour, then releasing an album.
Taylor, who will be supporting the Veronicas on the dates across North America, will share writing credits on the debut full-length with Toby Gad (who has worked with Fergie and Beyonce), James Michael (Alanis Morissette, Motley Crue) and Kato Khandwala (Paramore, Morningwood).
The tour kicks off in Nashville on May 9, and The Pretty Reckless’ CD will be out in the fall on Interscope. Now we’re just waiting for the news that Kelly Rutherford is releasing an electro pop EP.

Most actors who venture into music tend to do so with catastrophic results. For every Juliette Lewis or Milla Jovovich there are dozens of Keanu Reeveses (Dogstar!) and Jared Letos (30 Seconds to Mars!) churning out wretched tunes that could only be described as aural Gitmos. But the debut last night of Pretty Reckless, a band fronted by Gossip Girl star Taylor Momsen, did not suck at all. On the contrary, that girl can actually rock.
Playing at the Annex, a club in NYC’s Lower East Side, before a small army of girls at who probably should’ve been home much earlier on a school night — much like Momsen’s character, Jenny Humphrey, did in an episode last season — Momsen delivered a set more befitting a rock star who dabbles in acting, not the other way around. Looking like Debbie Harry and singing like Kim Carnes doing Karen O., Momsen showcased the potential to build a following among those who’d feel more comfortable listening to L7 or Sleater-Kinney than relating to any character on Gossip Girl.
Pretty Reckless took the stage around 9:30 P.M., and no one seemed to know what to expect. Was she going to go the cheesy pop route of early Alanis Morissette? Or was she going to do something to guarantee her next tour would be with the Jonas Brothers?
The band kicked in with no-holds-barred punk riffage, and Momsen led the way with a raspy roar, delivering semi-banal lines with ferocity: “I la-la-la-la-like you / I la-la-la-la-love you / I used to ha-ha-ha-ha-hate you / NOW I REALLY F-CKIN’ LOVE YOU!”
I just added 4 pictures from yesterday night. I hope to find more and more pictures. If you wanna see some taken by Laurence L, visit his Flickr. You also can see two videos of their performance. Click in Full Story and enjoy! Thanks Infinitii for the video links =)
Pretty Reckless is playing The Annex tonight at 9:30. And since most of the cast is in town today, I am putting on my optimism helmet and hoping they actually show up like they did last year for Ed’s band’s NYC debut, also at the Annex.
