This September, Queercore heroes Team Dresch will set off on the Northeastern leg of their tour in celebration of their 25th anniversary reissues and their new 7". If you're a genre queen and want to experience the venn diagram of grunge, emo, riot grrrl, and queercore, please come to the hug fest.
This leg of the tour features drummer Melissa York, who wrote and played on "Captain My Captain." Team Dresch is officially a quintet, but drummer Marcéo Martinez will hold down the Portland HQ during this leg. . In signature Team Dresch style, the new singles are undeniably pop/punk, rife with grunge/melodic catchiness, but also brimming with bristle and depth, conjuring feelings of longing and desire, and the need for human connection. The band's live performances reflect their love for each other, and are sure to ignite the spirit of the "take-no-s attitude" of third wave feminism and 90s zine culture.
