This tattoo that Rodriguez has inked on her knee is a sign of her will to always be playful and creative, like children who play tic-tac-toe for hours: "Friends always call my style whimsy and funky," says Rodriguez.
The band Plastic Children is very genre-mixing, Rodriguez says, with everything from trip-hop to jazz to soul-pop to metal, and caters to music fans with a broad palette: "Come check out our show this Friday at NORAD on 22nd and Champa.
