Hey Curlfriends, come swat the winter blues and get weird with us on Friday 18 July upstairs at The Tote hosted by Curlers — your local PMS-fuelled post-punk riot.

Featuring Elle (Rivers of Snakes, Cong Josie), Kat (Sugar Fed Leopards), Emma (Imperial Leather, PBS FM) and Rach, Curlers sound like what would happen if the B-52s got side-swiped by Babes in Toyland.

Joining us on the bill:

Captain Beep-Boop — transistor-based electronic punk through a modified Telstra “Bluephone” payphone. With hits like “Gender identity is a slippery slope, brother – and I’m going skiing,” Beep-boop is heavy on wit and circuitry.

Gold Coast Leathers — beach goths turned laneway lurkers, brewing up scuzzy punk. With songs like “I don’t need a man, I need a knife,” and a line-up featuring Sheena (drums & vocals), Dan (bass), Mike (guitar) and Casper (guitar), they’re lethal and they’re loud.
