The Pretty Reckless has broken the record for most number one songs in a row on the rock chart by a female-fronted band. “When I met Mark and Jamie it immediately clicked and 10 years later here we are,” said Momsen of her bandmates with whom she has just released Pretty Reckless’ third studio album, “Who You Selling For.” “Take Me Down,” one of the songs in the album, is their fourth single to hit number one on the Billboard’s Mainstream Rock Songs. I quit acting and focused solely on music. “So when I got to be a teenager, I got to make my own decisions I was old enough. “I was always writing and playing and singing since I can remember, so that was always what I think I was meant to do,” Momsen explained. Today, while she plays multiple instruments, she said the guitar is still her “go-to.” Around this time, she was put into acting but, as she got older, she felt it just wasn’t her thing. Momsen was always musically inclined, playing the piano at age three and switching over to guitar at age five when she got one for Christmas. Momsen emphasized, “I fell in love with at a very young age. “Started with The Beatles it was the first band I ever heard when I was an infant.” She liked 90s music like Nirvana, Sound Garden and The White Stripes but also liked the classic stuff like Pink Floyd, The Doors and Bob Dylan. “What got me into rock and roll was my dad’s vinyl collection,” said Taylor Momsen, frontwoman for American rock band The Pretty Reckless.
