"We are sleaze, swing and everything in between"
-Harley Meagher, Lady Strange
Voted Junkyard Rock Stories #1 Up-And-Coming Artist of 2024, Lady Strange was formed in 2021 by guitarist Harley Meagher and bassist Aiden Hallett in the town of La Salle, Illinois. Inspired by the music and decadence of 80's Hair Metal, the band quickly gained a following with their raw, untamable and unapologetic attitude. Their sleazy stage antics and tight, punchy, balls to the wall sound is the epitome of their shows. The bands lineup finishes with drummer Mitch "The Kid" Miller.
On January 19, 2024 they independently released their debut EP "Songs From The Gutter", a love letter to 80's glam but with a modern punch that'll knockout anyone who listens. After ripping the stage up with talented acts such as GRIMM, 3 Years Hollow, Dead Rock Radio and Mockstar and with their fans hungry for new music, Lady Strange went back into the studio to record and in the Summer of 2024 they came out with their 2nd independent release "Free Show For The Young & Drunk". An EP dedicated to the three things that motivate them most - "Sex, Drugs, and Rock 'n' Roll".
In 2025 they ventured out on the first ever tour, cleverly titled "The Gutter Tour '25". The tour put themselves on the midwest map by playing with notorious acts like Cheese Pizza, The Black Moods, Dark Sun, Daisychain, and most notably Trixter. The Gutter Tour '25 was a huge success by proving anyone who doubted them wrong and that Lady Strange is a band to be reckoned with.
With their music, on stage wildness and attitude. Lady Strange has no intention of slowing down any time soon.
