Queer as Punk presents pink suits on the Edinburgh leg of their tour. Support from local queer punks Fingering at the Disco, and The Sabotagers.

pink suits:
Margate punk duo pink suits are bringing their latest album Dystopian Hellscape on a UK wide tour. Inspired by the relentless over saturation of bleak news cycles, Dystopian Hellscape is a little more self-reflective, silly and sexy than its predecessor, political child, but it loses none of the band’s politically aggressive, anti-Tory, anti-Fascist, Feminist Queer Energy.

pink suits combine the epic riffs-and-beats-duo combo of The White Stripes, with all the ferocious riot grrrl energy of Bikini Kill, plus a healthy dose of Peaches-inspired inhibitionless queer joy, pink suits offer something completely unique: an immense formidable force, tinged with an infectious vibrant spirit and colourful charisma. Raging, yet uplifting; punk anthems that we need now more than ever.

An incomparable immense experience to witness live, pink suits have previously shared stages with the likes of Bob Vylan, Panic Shack, Big Joanie, Lambrini Girls and The Menstrual Cramps, and have received acclaim from publications such as Louder Than War and The Bristol Gig Guide.

Fingering at the Disco:
Fingering at the Disco is an Edinburgh based, queer, feminist punk band born of out the Girls Rock School. Inspired by the riot grrrl movement and early 2000s pop, their pop punk anthems respond to today’s inescapable political chaos. They demand more queer nights, a collapse of girlboss feminism and that we all, effectively, fuck shit up.

The Sabotagers:
Sabotaging songs with a high-pitch existential attitude.

£10 on the door. Wheelchair accessible. Gender neutral toilets. Please let the organiser know if you require a seat or any other accommodations.
