Eight Gigs: Bad Cop/Bad Cop
Fri., Feb. 24, 8 p.m., Hideaway Bar & Grill, $10
It should come as no surprise that Jennie Cotterill paints very pretty vaginas. Of course, she creates much more than that: custom wedding cake toppers, nifty dioramas and album cover art for her four-piece band Bad Cop/Bad Cop, to name a few. But the vagina art—playful and in-your-face feminist—speaks to Bad Cop/Bad Cop’s music as well. It’s brash, fun, kick-ass pop-punk with traces of riot grrrl. Look to the California group’s debut full-length on Fat Wreck Records, 2015’s Not Sorry, for an excellent taste. And, of course, admire the female-fronted cover art. 2565 Franklin Boulevard, www.badcopbadcopband.com.
