There isn’t a much better band name out there right now than Perfect Pussy. If there’s a cool reasonably-priced t-shirt I’m absolutely buying one. Being a female music critic I tend to avoid white male music critics as much as possible but on occasion I’ll read Rolling Stone or Pitchfork or NME listen to NPR’s All Songs Considered. Last year the guys on All Songs Considered RAVED about Perfect Pussy, a punk riot grrl-ish band out of Syracuse New York. The music’s fierce, fast and furious. The lyrics bold and feminist. Just as punk should be.

Perfect Pussy is:

Meredith Graves (vocals)

Ray McAndrew (guitar)

Garrett Koloski (drums)

Greg Ambler (bass)

Shaun Sutkus (synths)

Perfect Pussy plays The Middle East Nightclub Upstairs on Wednesday, December 16, 2015. Doors at 8pm.
