Thelma and the Sleaze is an independent all-female, queer southern rock band from Nashville, Tennessee.

LG is the embodiment of hustle. As the driving force behind Thelma and The Sleaze, she is the songwriter, the visionary, the take-no-shit-from-anyone front woman that is single handedly keeping rock and roll alive. Thelma and The Sleaze has been touring the US for years building a legion of fans, affectionally called her creepers. The growing social media presence, the hit podcast, the features with Yamaha Guitars are really all the result of her incredible songwriting, visceral guitar playing, and the guts to deliver on her vision of what Rock and Roll should be. The people have noticed – having pre-sold nearly half of the first pressing of Fuck, Marry, K*ll in two days!!

Fuck, Marry, K*ll is the culmination of years of breaking down, building up, and growing their sound. After the disintegration of their old line-up and pulling together new bandmates, LG has been touring with them almost nonstop with over 100 shows in 2019. One of the highlights of the tour were two sold out shows supporting Grammy Nominee Brittany Howard.

Amidst all the touring, the band was able to track Fuck, Marry, K*ll in Nashville, produced by LG with Mixing and Mastering by Jim Kissling in Detroit (King Tuff, Ex Hex, The Go). Inspirations for this album pull from 80’s metal, Robert Palmer, Eddie Money, Depeche Mode, and early Rock and Roll.

Having performed with acts like Eagles of Death Metal, The Coathangers, Birdcloud, Burmuda Triangle, and Charles Bradley, Thelma and The Sleaze have long established themselves as one of the best touring bands out there. Having signed on to The What of Whom for the release of their next record, Fuck, Marry, K*ll, they have also released music through the likes of Burger Records and Third Man Records.

Boston native Julie Rhodes musical career started “on a whim”. After singing along in the audience at a house show, she was given some words of encouragement to write her own songs. That night, she began writing her first song and before long she was recording her debut album with producer Jonah Tolchin. She released Bound to Meet the Devil in 2016 and it's clear this powerhouse vocalist/songwriter is an artist on the rise.
