Meanjin\/Brisbane, we can\u2019t wait to meet you.<\/p>\n
On Sunday 29 November, LOUD WOMEN Fest Australia<\/strong> lands at The Brightside<\/a> for the final stop of our three-city Australian run, with 12 bands bringing feminist punk, riot grrrl, post-punk, doom, alt-rock and assorted excellent noise from across Australia and the UK.<\/p>\n And this one has been built with people who actually live and breathe the local scene.<\/p>\n Helping us make the Meanjin Fest happen are Riley Doherty of Vipersnatch<\/strong> and Georgia Zemanek-Woodrow of Whoroboros<\/strong>, bringing local knowledge, local connections and plenty of DIY energy to the whole thing.<\/p>\n Anna & the Morphics<\/a><\/strong> + Dirty Linen<\/a><\/strong> + I, Doris<\/a><\/strong> + IRKED<\/a><\/strong> + Lavender Threat<\/a><\/strong> + Sage<\/a><\/strong> + Second Idol<\/a><\/strong> + smallways.<\/a><\/strong> + The Maggie Pills<\/a><\/strong> + Vipersnatch<\/a><\/strong> + Whoroboros<\/a><\/strong> + Whose Party<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n There\u2019s plenty of Meanjin in the room. Anna & the Morphics<\/strong> bring gender-diverse femme-punk drawing on punk, post-punk, new wave, goth and riot grrrl; Dirty Linen<\/strong> turn sapphic love, despair and feminine rage into alternative punk; and two-piece Lavender Threat<\/strong> make what they very accurately describe as \u201cdyke doom\u201d.<\/p>\n Then there\u2019s Whoroboros<\/strong>, serving up Meanjin riot grrrl and feminist propaganda, and Whose Party<\/strong>, whose grungy guitars and bright melodies move between atmospheric vulnerability and big, noisy hooks.<\/p>\n Coming in from elsewhere in Australia are Gadigal\/Sydney punk-art duo smallways.<\/strong>, Naarm trans punk artist Sage<\/strong>, Gadigal\/Wangal alt-rockers Second Idol<\/strong>, and Naarm six-piece The Maggie Pills<\/strong>. Vipersnatch<\/strong> are heading down from Darumbal Land\/Rockhampton with their uncompromising feminist punk, while the UK contingent comes in the form of North East punks IRKED<\/strong> and London menopunks I, Doris<\/strong>.<\/p>\n In other words: arrive early.<\/p>\n Taking LOUD WOMEN around the world was never supposed to mean parachuting into a city, putting our logo on a poster and disappearing again.<\/p>\n For each Australian Fest, we\u2019ve worked with people who are part of the scene on the ground. In Meanjin, that means Riley from Vipersnatch<\/strong> and Georgia from Whoroboros<\/strong>, who have helped us shape a bill rooted in the community they\u2019re part of every day.<\/p>\n That\u2019s the bit we\u2019re most excited about: bands and scenes connecting across cities and countries, audiences finding new favourites, and LOUD WOMEN becoming something each city can make its own.<\/p>\n Presale tickets are $25 general admission \/ $20 concession for the first two weeks<\/strong>.<\/p>\nThe lineup<\/h2>\n
