Girl Next Door
 
GIRL NEXT DOOR is a Chicago-based cover band that began turning heads in 2003 by playing a diverse mix of classic to current hits – from pop to rock to new country - that are fun, danceable and include some the best songs of all time. Fronted by a powerful, versatile female lead singer, GIRL NEXT DOOR consists of accomplished musicians with many years experience performing, not only in Chicago, but worldwide. The secret to their success is their full rich sound, tight harmonies, high energy performances and unmatched professionalism.

Why GIRL NEXT DOOR? The ultimate goal for every GIRL NEXT DOOR show is to ENGAGE and ENTERTAIN the audience, not just play music...an approach that clearly differentiates GIRL NEXT DOOR from other bands. This is accomplished through transitioning from one song to the next without pause, as well as modifying the song selection "On-the-Fly" by reading the crowd's reaction and playing what music works best…all to keep the party rolling!!

GIRL NEXT DOOR caters to ANY audience with their wide range of musical diversity. The band’s repertoire consists of the beginnings of rock and roll through today's popular music.... Alternative, Classic Rock, Motown, Hair Bands, R&B, 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's ...As well as today's Top 40 hits. The range of music makes GIRL NEXT DOOR perfect for most events, including: Festivals, Private Parties, Corporate Events and Nightclubs.

BAND MEMBERS: FREDA HUMBLE - LEAD VOCALS Freda’s powerful, versatile voice lends itself to any genre of music...country, pop, rock, blues or jazz.
