The Pretty Reckless is an American alternative rock band that was formed and is fronted by American actress and model Taylor Momsen. Momsen originally formed the band with John Secolo, Matt Chiarell and Nick Carbone. Together they recorded some demos in early 2009 and opened for The Veronicas on their North American tour.
Soon after, Momsen fired her band members because they didn't fit with her music style and formed a new band that currently includes Ben Phillips (guitar), Mark Damon (bass) and Jamie Perkins (drums). The band was originally going to be called "The Reckless", but was changed to "The Pretty Reckless" due to trademark problems. Their influences include The Beatles, Oasis and Nirvana.
The Pretty Reckless are currently signed with Interscope Records and their debut album, Light Me Up, was released on August 30, 2010 in the UK, and on February 8, 2011 in the United States and in Canada. It is currently the #1 album on UK iTunes, and within a day of being released in North America, the album hit #3 on the overall iTunes chart and #1 on the iTunes Rock Chart.
