		<title>WATCH: Summer Girlfriends have fun with food</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In their new video for their breezy tune &#8220;Shockwaves,&#8221; Summer Girlfriends have fun with food. Literally. The indie-pop quintet smash up raw meat, get awkward with fruit, sprayed by mustard and even commit the nefarious act of murder by popsicle.

		<description><![CDATA[Hollows first made waves in Chicago with their bopping, sometimes spooky garage rock that garnered comparisons to The Shangri-Las and Ronnie Spector. Those comparisons were fair and fine seeing as their tunes had a proclivity to lean on classic girl group vibes (FWIW, the drummer is a dude).
