There is a distinctly early nineties feel to Luigi’s ‘Mariposa’, post grunge it may be but it also conjures images of those feisty female fronted bands of the time. Michelle DuBois has attitude in spades and sveltely surfs her bands spunky playing. And it’s all over in a flash, clocking in at just over 2 minutes. The Atlanta quartet were formed in 2003 and have 2 albums to their name, the last of which ‘Found on the Forest Floor’ came out 3 years ago. Looks like things may be slowly grinding to a halt but DuBois seems to have the wherewithal to reinvent herself again (she has previously been in the Flying Polecats and Ultrababyfat). There are a scatter of free mp3s to be found at the bands website and myspace (links below) which are well worth checking out. We need bands like this. KD
