THWACK!

THWACK! are London’s foremost orchestra-infused punk rock imagineers. These rising stars have been captivating audiences with their eccentric and unpredictable shows, high-octane originality and killer tracks. In the last year alone they have already won band battles, played major festivals, scored a viral internet hit and brought their queer rage and theatricality to an ever growing list of iconic cities and venues.

An 8-foot zombie Maggie Thatcher, Riot Grrrl, seductive string harmonies, redemptive angels, bad puns, sapphic yearning, scintillating outfits – find all this and more at the next THWACK! show...

Combining their collective experience in drag and cabaret, punk bands, classical music and much more to create a wild and original cocktail of chaos that is already garnering an enthusiastic following in the reputable underground venues of London and beyond. Their lyrics are a heady blend of satire, heart felt poetics, passion and vulnerability.

They have variously had comparisons to Blondie, Bowie, Pixies, The Velvet Underground, The Last Dinner Party, Against Me! and Bikini Kill. Hot off the heels of their new EP ‘BURIED BUT BLOOMING’ these glittering little freaks are not to be missed.
