Local Artist Vocalist/songwriter starting femme punk band!
Hello Prov! This is a bit of a shot in the dark here but here we go:
I'm a singer/songwriter and amateurish guitarist (currently fronting a tamer, shoegazey band) that wants to put together a punk band with a Riot Grrrl kind of vibe to it, MINUS the exclusivity, racism and transphobia, fuck that.
Times are wack (nothing new), and I'd really like to collab with anyone who's got something to say or play in a big way to bring people together. Ideally looking for lead guitarist, bassist, and drummer, that want to put some high-energy music together that people can go a little nuts to. But really, open to anyone who's excited to use music to say some real shit and have some fun while doing it. It would be pretty sick to play some crusty, unofficial basements this summer.
Biggest influences I can think of are anything Kathleen Hannah (Bikini Kill, Le Tigre, Julie Ruin), Sleater-Kinney, Destroy Boys, Girlpool, Big Joanie, Pinkshift, Manequin Pussy, Lambrini Girls, Palehound, Mommy Long Legs, Little Baby Tendencies, and so on and so forth!! The sky is the limit here.
If any of this has you even considering replying or sending me a DM, fucking do it!! If not, that's ok!! You're the realest for reading this through.
Seriously though if you're pissed at the world and wanna do something creative with it, then let's fucking go.
