Interview: Betty Who on Boston, Broadway, and ’80s bops

<p>You could say that Betty Who’s career is defined by three B’s: Boston, Broadway, and bops. The pop singer may hail from Sydney, Australia, but her launching pad was right here in Boston, where Who graduated from Berklee just one year before releasing her debut album Take Me When You Go. It’s a trajectory that would go on to yield a glimmering collection of synth-pop gems — from her first single “Somebody Loves You” to her most recent release, the […]</p>

Chicago lipstick-punk band Sweetie returns with a new music video just in time for Pride Month, and Dying Scene is giving you the exclusive premiere!


Oh Sweetie, didn’t you know? Nice girls DON’T wear cha cha heels. Chicago’s favorite lipstick-punk band, Sweetie, is back with another banger, and this time it’s loaded up with hairspray, attitude, and a pencil-thin moustache.

Inspired by the iconic line from John Waters cinematic masterpiece, Female Trouble (1974), “Nice Girls Don’t Wear Cha Cha Heels” is an energetic song that grabs you and shakes you as hard as she can, filling the listener with queer energy and blind feminine range.


For the video, Sweetie brought in a variety of scenes referencing John Waters films. “I really wanted to make this a love letter to John Waters. I’ve been obsessed with him and Divine for so long and I really wanted an homage to his films. The moment I wrote “Cha Cha Heels”, the ideas for music videos started pouring into my mind. Luckily, I have a badass group of pals who love to get dressed up in drag and be silly and make art, so I had LOTS of help. I also wanted to open it to the community, so I had people send in lip syncing clips for the video!”


This music video premier leads up to the release of Sweetie’s sophomore album, La Vie en Rouge. Sweetie will be having their record release show on Friday, June 27th at the Egyptian Theatre in Dekalb, IL, with their musical performance being directly followed by a showing of the Rocky Horror Picture Show, accompanied by the Irrational Masters shadow-casting the film. Presale tickets can be purchased here.

Before their record release show, you can catch Sweetie on June 14th in Chicago for the Queer Takeover at the Color Club!
