LA Feminist Art-Punks French Vanilla Announce Debut LP

Los Angeles feminist art-punk band French Vanilla announce their full-length self-titled album, out March 24 via Danger Collective Records. The nine vigorous tracks regulate the dance floor with socially sensitive lyrics, vocal freneticism, punchy basslines, and catchy sax. Delivering performances filled with infectious energy and enthusiasm, the band has shared stages with Girlpool, Screaming Females, Tacocat, Genesis P-Orridge and Cherry Glazerr. They are hitting the road for a run of West Coast dates, full list above or click HERE.

Album cuts "Carrie" and "Evolution" lead with sassy, bouncing bass lines while "Social Trappings" and "Thru The Earth" are spurred by percussive, commanding vocal melodies. Today, CLRVYNT shares lead single "Anti-Aging Global Warming", we encourage you to post & share!

French Vanilla is made up of Max Albeck (drums), Ali Day (guitar/bass), Sally Spitz (vocals), and Daniel Trautfield (bass/sax). Half-driven by a desire to challenge the established SoCal music scene, dominated by a few influential (male) tastemakers, and half by a desire to hang out with friends, FV started in LA's queer punk underground and it is in these spaces that they feel the most at home.

1. Honesty
2. Carrie
