The Lascivious Biddies, an all female cocktail pop quartet based in New York City, have earned a reputation for having an energetic and tightly woven live show, full of laughter, expert musicianship and a dash of sentimentality.

At SXSW 2005 the Biddies made a splash with the media and fans alike. "If the Donnas are rock's answer to girl power, then the Lascivious Biddies are jazz's answer to female singularity." (The Austin American-Statesman).

The Washington Post calls them "Manhattan's Hippest Girl Group." According to Time Out New York, the Biddies' second album, Get Lucky, overflows with "angelic vocal harmonies, wordy humor, jazz chops and pop moxie."

CBS Evening News confirms: "The Lascivious Biddies could teach us all a thing or two."

Freedom of Expression Is A Basic Human Right.  But, in a lot of countries, singing your song and speaking your mind can land you in prison... or worse. 

Ma Than Htay & Ma Tin Tin Oo are two Buddhist nuns and human rights defenders in their early 20s who were arrested for participating in a peaceful demonstration in 2003. Both women are currently serving sentences of 13 years' imprisonment. Over 45,000 other individuals jailed solely for their beliefs or their identity have been released by people like you writing letters, sending e-mails and signing petitions!

At The Lascivious Biddies SXSW Showcase, an Amnesty International representative will be available to answer your questions, and a petition will be available for you to sign!

Have a cocktail, see a great show and make a difference!
If you can't make it to Austin, the petition will also be available:
