Asked about her real given name, the lead singer, bassist, and songwriter for local New Orleans rock’n’roll favorites Lips and the Trips will only say she that she prefers to be known formally as “D. ‘Lips’ Shus,” thus maintaining a sense of character that permeates her sense of fun, musical perspective, and enthusiasm for performing. “When I was a kid I started out lip-synching to records,” she says. But that’s not where she got her nickname -- that came instead from the prominence of certain facial features and a tendency to partake in provocative give-and-take repartée with almost anyone around her.
When she gets down to making music, though, she’s all business as the rip-roaring repertoire of Dance, Babies, Dance attests. Pairing up with another local New Orleans favorite, guitarist and vocalist Johnny J., of Johnny J. and the Hitmen, this version of Lips and the Trips rocks its way through a scintillating program of vintage 1950s rock, R&B, and rockabilly classics.
