Philadelphia Weekly

Girl in a Coma

Ever notice how little sisters can be preening divas? Phanie Diaz recognized in her 12-year-old sister, Nina, the indomitable stage presence and powerful pipes of a great frontwoman. It ended a long search by Phanie and BFF bassist Jenn Alva. Now, Nina’s versatility is key to their eclectic sound. Sometimes she’s a sultry, shoulder-shimmying minx. Other times, she’s a blustery gale force rocker, and still others a breathy, pouty-lipped dream pop crooner. She’s such a dramatic presence—like a model, she’d look good in anything—that the music could be an after-thought. It’s anything but. Last year’s Exits & All the Rest skillfully runs the gamut from whiskey-stained country to glam, surf and garage. -Chris Parker
