Editor's note

Taylor Momsen, from Gossip Girl to rock frontwoman

The actress turned singer leads The Pretty Reckless with a straightforward rock sound.

For the full picture, listen to 'Just Tonight' from that first album and something later like 'Under The Water'. They bookend the same rock commitment.

Momsen left her role on Gossip Girl in 2009 to form The Pretty Reckless, making a clean break from television. Their debut album 'Light Me Up' arrived in 2010 with songs like 'Just Tonight' that established their rock direction. She's kept the focus on the music through albums like 2021's 'Death by Rock and Roll', with tracks like 'Under The Water' showing the band's consistent approach.

She started as an actress on Gossip Girl before leaving in 2009 to form The Pretty Reckless with guitarist Ben Phillips. The band's 2010 debut 'Light Me Up' marked the shift, followed by albums like 'Going to Hell' and 'Death by Rock and Roll'.

Archive material and source history

Taylor Momsen was born in St. Louis, Missouri in 1993. She first gained attention as an actress playing Jenny Humphrey on the television series Gossip Girl starting in 2007. In 2009, she left that role to focus on music, forming the band The Pretty Reckless with guitarist Ben Phillips, bassist Mark Damon, and drummer Jamie Perkins.

The band's debut album 'Light Me Up' came out in 2010, featuring songs like 'Just Tonight' and 'Follow Me Down.' Momsen's vocal style and the band's rock sound marked a clear departure from her television work. They've since released several more albums including 'Going to Hell' in 2014 and 'Death by Rock and Roll' in 2021.

Momsen has occasionally drawn attention for her stage presence and personal style, but the music has remained the focus. Songs like 'Under The Water' and 'Everybody Wants Something From Me' show the straightforward rock approach that has defined The Pretty Reckless through their recordings.
