Greensboro's DADDY ISSUES performs live on The State of Things.

The cleverly-named female band DADDY ISSUES from Greensboro, North Carolina started making music last year.

They have gained a following with songs like "Sex on the Beach" and "Babehammer.” The group’s surf/punk rock style has caught on throughout the state.
