Shares songs centered on sisterhood and create a sonically atmospheric vibe that lands in dream-pop and alt-rock.

Described by Rolling Stone as “sarcasm-heavy, garage rock” with “hooky choruses and punk stomphas.” Think lo-fi with elements of grunge, punk, and new wave.
8:45 PM- L7
A femme fueled rock band. Part punk, part hard-core, and part party band. They are “triumphantly unladylike” and deliver a collision of throat-shredding vocals, crunchy riffs, and a ferocious attitude.
