Garbage Girlfriend, the all-female teen alternative/garage rock band from Katy, is releasing their first single, "Lies," on all streaming platforms on September 12.

Fans can pre-save the track now to be notified when it goes live at midnight. Produced by Grammy Award-winning, multi-platinum producer Malcolm Springer out of Nashville, “Lies” is the first in a series of releases that will culminate in the band’s debut album. An official music video for “Lies” will premiere on YouTube on Thursday, September 11 at 6 p.m. CT.

On release day, Garbage Girlfriend will open for national touring act Liliac at Warehouse Live Midtown 2600 Travis in Houston starting at 7 p.m. Garbage Girlfriend’s July appearance at the venue drew more than 600 attendees.

“We can’t believe a song all four of us wrote together is about to be heard around the world—it’s a teenage dream come true,” said Evelyn Moreno,17, drummer and founder of Garbage Girlfriend. “Please pre-save ‘Lies’ on your favorite platform and come celebrate with us Friday night at Warehouse Live.”

Garbage Girlfriend consists of lead vocalist Liv Teixeira,15; guitarist Christy Ferra, 15; drummer Evelyn Moreno, 17; and bassist Ciona Casino, 18. Moreno attends Katy’s Taylor High School while Ferra is at Mayde Creek. Teixeira attends Bridgeland High School in Cypress-Fairbanks, ISD. Casino is a Seven Lakes High School grad and now a freshman at the University of Houston. The band is managed by Paul Crosby Management.

Moreno founded the band in July 2022 shortly after she broke up with her first-ever boyfriend, who called her a garbage girlfriend in a text message. She had been wanting to start a band; that text gave Evelyn the push and partly fueled her decision to make the members all-female. The girls met when they were students at School of Rock.
