Aw, shit. This is some great stuff. Pink Nasty 's got it all: clever, meaningful lyrics; a warm, expressive voice; and some rollicking hook-filled guitar riffs. How is it that I feel like I have so much in common with this young woman originally from Kansas? I ask myself that repeatedly as I revel in her music. She's tough yet not afraid to expose her feelings, as she can kick it out as easily as she can be vulnerable, plus she has a sense of humor. It's a great [...]

Pink Nasty is Sara Beck. While, I'm not 100% sure about Pink Nasty, I am fairly certain Black Nasty is not for me. Anyway, dig the indie-folk goodness.

technically, the answer is the sister of filthy whiteboy hiphop guttersnipe, black nasty. but like all things in this crazy world of ours there's more than one response to that question. pink nasty is a purveyor of texan musical loveliness and celestial vocal musings, who i first encountered when i heard her new album, mold the gold, was produced by palace brother and real-life sibling of beloved bonnie 'prince' billy, paul oldham. and not only that, they'd recorded a lovers duet (in the time honoured tradition of say, mickey and sylvia, only in denim dungarees). now, anything [...]
If you're like me, when you see the moniker Pink Nasty you're probably expecting a sound that lives up to the name. Maybe angry, fem-fueled girl punk? Many dirty urban brit-infused grime? How about gentle, indie-roots ballads? If you picked the last one then you would be correct...and would probably have absolutely no sense of inductive reasoning. Pink Nasty , sister to rapper Black Nasty (who is to say the least a little more deserving of his name), crafts a very vintage sounding style of songwriting [...]
PINK NASTY [MP3] Pink Nasty - Burn (Usher Cover) [MP3] Pink Nasty - Don't Ever Change (feat. Bonnie 'Prince' Billy) In my continuing series of amazing performers with absolutely horrifying band names I am pleased to bring you PINK NASTY . By day PINK NASTY lives a simple life in Austin, TX as the mild mannered 24 year old Sara Beck. By night she fights off Texas [...]
Austin, TX Pink Nasty is Sara Beck. Her second full-length is entitled Mold The Gold and it's like a breath of fresh air in a smoke filled bar. "Thirsty Thursday" [...]
BUY! BUY! BUY! Everyone is out consuming today, so I hope you all find what you are looking for. I'm staying in. I hate insano shopping days like this. The deals are unreal this year and if the enormous jumps in sales volume at my day job are any indication, the economy is doing really, really well.

Pink Nasty is not what you would expect from the name alone. My first impressions to the name had me thinking hip hop. Especially when I realized the connection to her brother, Black Nasty , who is a hip hopper with a rather foul rhyming habit. But it really couldnt be much different. Pink Nasty , aka Sara Beck, instead brings a quality brand of Americana to the table. With beautiful vocals and a quirky and energetic approach to songwriting, Pink Nasty stands out from her Americana peers for sure. [...]
"Dinner party after work?" he asked. "No, a funeral this afternoon," I replied. I guess I don't much feel like posting today with the funeral-attending and all -- plus I have a sinus headache. I hope you'll understand. We are very close to securing an apartment, though -- in a brownstone in notorious Brooklyn hood that actually has fewer crimes per capita than our way-desirable 78704 zip code. Believe me, we were kind of surprised by that too. ...and I just got an email that my Joanna [...]
The other day I was driving around and heard this excellent duo between Pink Nasty and Will Oldham on WRFL. I told myself that I had to run out and grab it as soon as it was available. The next day I received it in the mail. I figure as ...
Dallas 21, Indianapolis 14 I don't know what is the bigger story, the Colts losing or McNabb tearing his ACL, but since I'm a homer, I'll start with the Colts. Five turnovers in the first quarter alone. This game started sloppy and got ugly. Tony Romo, when it mattered, was simply the better quarterback. Heck, he's been the best QB in the league since he was named the starter. How did this
There were three stand out, solo artists at CMJ this year. All three seemed to captivate my friends and I far more than the mundane and overcrowded field of artists in this category. First off, Pink Nasty. Maybe I'm biased because I think she is breathtaking in both her beauty and her style, Black Nasty's sister is definitely at the top of my iPod's most played list this week. Her voice keeps my attention, while a few [...]
My first exposure to both Pink Nasty (and her brother Black Nasty ) was through her website and myspace pages. I thought it was brilliant, smartass (see Black Nasty) parody. My second exposure was the release of Bonnie "Prince" Billy's live document Summer In The Southeast with Pink on backup vocals. After hearing those pipes, I was [...]
Pink Nasty (aka Austinite Sara Beck) is high on my list of need-ta/wanna see. She was invited to tour with Bonnie "Prince" Billy and is featured on his live album. He reciprocated with a duet on her new album Mold the Gold . Her brother is Black Nasty , who helps to co-write some of her songs. Black and Pink Nasty also sing love songs with another brother as The Kevins . Somehow I missed her last time she was in town and down the street from my house. I'm [...]
1. The Decemberists - After the Bombs - I'll echo the sentiments of pretty much everyone I know who has heard this bonus track by saying "THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN ON THE RECORD." The most important reason being that it's probably one of the best things they've ever written and fits with the theme of the album to perfection. The second most important reason being the most incredible organ solo at about 3:17 to ...well, about 4:26. I could pretty much listen to that 1:09 on repeat from now until the day I die and be completely content. [...]
I might've mentioned this before, but we fucking love Pink Nasty . If you're not familiar with Ms. Nasty, imagine a slightly more neurotic and hilarious Neko Case , or a much more badass Jenny Lewis , and you'd be getting close. We've had a crush on Pink since we saw her open for Jose Gonzalez at SXSW '06, so needless to say, we're excited about the release of her new album, Mold the Gold . This song, featuring the voice of the great Bonnie "Prince" Billy [...]
We're heading to Austin tomorrow for the ACL Music Festival , as well as a couple tapings of the ACL TV show ( Sufjan , Jack White , and Cat Power , oh my). Anyway, we got to thinking, "Goddamn, Austin is awesome." I know I post on an Austin band seemingly every other day, but I honestly feel like Austin's current independent music scene is better than any other in the U.S. (for sure), and possibly the world. Don't take my word for it though: I've compiled 20 of my favorite [...]
