Hemi Cuda heading off into the sunset

Yep. You read that right. The ladies of Hemi Cuda, another storied Denver band that’s been around for more than a dozen years, are hanging up their hot pants and heels for good. Although the act hasn’t announced when its final show will be, when it appears at Bender’s Tavern this Friday, August 14, with Frontside 5 and Speedwolf, you can bet it’s going to be a good time as it will undoubtedly be one of the last gigs. According to Karen Cuda, she’s planning to continue on with Nashville Pussy, an outfit she’s held down the low end for the past five years and working with Girls Rock Camp, and Anika’s going to focus on being a mom and her “ever growning mixology career.” Adieu, ladies. It’s been a wild ride.
