The women of Antigone Rising, known for relentless grass roots touring, returns with new lead singer, Nini Camps.

Founded by sisters Cathy & Kristen Henderson, Antigone Rising was catapulted into the spotlight in 2005 with their Starbucks/Hear Music/Lava Records debut release – “From the Ground Up.” A major line-up shift in 2008 led to a brief hiatus, but after a few months on the sidelines, drummer Dena Tauriello & The Henderson sisters made the decision to keep moving forward with new member Nini Camps on lead vocals.

Nini Camps is a vocal force that holds her own in the musical landscape of Antigone Rising. Her voice blends perfectly with the signature style vocal harmonies the band has become known for, while also adding her own unique sound. A first generation Cuban American, Camps originally hails from Miami, Florida. With the addition of Camps as lead singer, Antigone Rising continues to turn heads and gain popularity with their poignant lyrics, catchy melodies and soaring three-part harmonies.

The band, sisters Cathy Henderson (guitar, vocals) and Kristen Henderson (guitar, bass, vocals), Dena Tauriello (drums), and Nini Camps (lead vocals, rhythm guitar) is heading into the studio to record tracks for upcoming projects. In the meantime, fans can also catch the melodious quartet at dates around the Northeast, already selling out in NYC and Philadelphia.

Known for their driving and vivacious live show, Antigone Rising has toured with The Rolling Stones, Aerosmith, The Allman Brothers Band, The Dave Matthews Band, Rob Thomas, Joan Jett & The Blackhearts, Lucinda Williams and The Bangles amongst others. Since their inception the band has released 4 independent albums. In 2004, they were signed to Lava Records, leading to a partnership with Starbucks. With the release of their album, “From The Ground Up,” Antigone Rising became the first band in Starbucks' "Hear Music Debut" series.

In 2006, Antigone Rising appeared in a national print (Cosmo, Elle, Vanity Fair) and television campaign for designer clothing company 7 Jeans. They have enjoyed sponsorships with Mustang and Motorola. VH1 showed their support of Antigone Rising by playing their videos and aired a half-hour special featuring the band. CMT also embraced them by playing the video of their single, "Don't Look Back" in heavy rotation. The band has also appeared on The Today Show, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, Emeril, A&E’s Breakfast with the Arts & several VH-1 programs including “I Love the 70s” & “I Love the 80s” episodes.
