History
Baby Guts, who's name humorously translates into, "infant courage" is a punk rock trio with influences ranging from Nirvana to ASS to Bikini Kill. The original members, Laura Larson and Taylor Motari met in high school in Burnsville MN, playing in separate bands of their own until forming together with drummer Brandon Lentz. With ambition to successfully move away from the suburbs and into a more meaningful abode, Laura and Taylor relocated the band to Minneapolis.
After many performances in several parts of the Midwest, including their own Minneapolis basement titled, "The Pocketknife", Baby Guts decided to write and record songs that can now be heard on their EP, Gasoline. While 'touring' with fellow local band, The Men Who Control the Weather around the Dakota's, Taylor and Laura decided it was time to drop former drummer Brandon Lentz for a more suitable replacement, Rob Goswitz.
After months of performing and rehearsing as the new lineup, the band decided to record themselves for various mediums, including: the Life of Monotony compilation The Pocketknife Demo, the EP Gasoline, and a 7" split with fellow Minneapolis band, Unicorn Basement.
Currently, Baby Guts is enjoying the critical acclaim of several twin cities publications - including 'Best Female Vocalist' by City Pages. On May 29th, 2008, Baby Guts released their first full length album, "The Kissing Disease", which was recorded at the famous Pachyderm studio in Cannon Falls.
