Fistymuffs 10th birthday gig coming up Saturday 6 June - come celebrate with us at Leith Depot, doors at 7pm. Tickets available now from link in bio 🌈🎫🎸 @fistymuffs Fistymuffs are a political punk, queer riot grrrl band from Edinburgh. 3 Girls Rock School Edinburgh graduates who have been together since 2016, Fistymuffs have released 2 EPs and are currently working on their debut album. With songs that challenge the hegemony of the rich, and topics including climate change, neurodiversity, and crap jobs, Fistymuffs inspire rebellion through energetic crunchy chords and powerful beats. Fistymuffs have played at several UK festivals including the Kelburn Garden Party in Largs, Book Yer Ane Fest in Dundee, Rise Up Quines in Aberdeen, and Hell Hath New Fury in Manchester. They have supported many notable acts, including Screaming Females, Sløtface, Petrol Girls, Dream Nails and War on Women.

Thanks everyone who came down to @leithdepot138 last night for Queer as Punk. We may have sold out the venue, but we’re still proudly DIY. Thanks to @thefartingsuffragettes @count.florida and @ponyponiesponys for their amazing live sets. The Farting Suffragettes and Pony/Ponies/Pony’s will be sharing a bill again for Porty Pride’s gig on Friday 5th June so be sure to check that out!
