The Maybenauts Put On A Free Show
Local group The Maybenauts put a punchy, spunky spin on glam rock and power pop. The face of the band isn't namesake bassist Ellie Maybe or lead singer Leilani Frey, but the audacious, tenacious guitar playing panda, Vee Sonnets. He wreaks all kinds of havoc during their live shows, just as he creates confusion for the group in their new video for the song "Not Aware" (directed by Jesse Irwin). The single itself, off their recently released EP, Big Bang, is a playful blend of 90's alt-girl rock and sex appeal that will have you shouting out the chorus with the same brazenness as we did with Shirley Manson.
Catch the group tomorrow night as part of a free show at Double Door. Show starts at 8:30pm and The Maybenauts play first. 1572 N. Milwaukee. They also play the Cubby Bear on September 25th as they open for Spacehog. Listen to Q101 or visit their website for free tickets. 9:30pm. 1059 W. Addison. Both shows are 21 & up.
