Punk Rock Tea Party & The Badass Babe Playlist
There sure are a shit ton of women and women-identifying people out there across the world who are continually overlooked, undermined, and negated, despite so-called “progression”. It fucking sucks.
But, at least we have a day where it’s on the extra top of people’s minds. So, to honor all the badass babes out there on this day that we internationally celebrate womanly creatures, here's a 4+ hour playlist to help you slide into the weekend.
From punk rock pioneers like Patti Smith, Poly Styrene & X-Ray Spex, Blondie, Siouxsie & the Banshees, Pretenders, Joan Jett and The Runaways, and Wendy O Williams to the nineties RIOT GRRL bands like Bikini Kill, Bratmobile, L7, The Gits, Heavens To Betsy and Sleater-Kinney to modern maven-fronted bands like Amyl & The Sniffers, Screaming Females, Big Joanie, The Coat Hangers, Daisy Chainsaw, THICK, Suzie True, Skating Polly and The Linda Lindas, you're in for a real rowdy treat.
So turn it the fuck up, ladies and other earthlings. It's time for the Punk Rock Tea Party!
P.S.-
You could have yr very own Punk Rock Tea Party, too. The book Booze & Vinyl: A Spirited Guide to Great Music and Mixed Drinks has all the ingredients for a good ol’ new-fashioned tea party with punk sensibility and scrumptious snacking. So, grab yr gals, put Blondie's Parallel Lines on the record player (or this playlist!), pour a cocktail… I mean…cup of tea, and rock the fuck out. And remember, PINKIES UP!
Here’s a sneak peak of the pages for the Punk Rock Tea Party, which include “Liner Notes'“ and some pretty damn-good delicious cocktail recipes and snacks you can make for yr tea-sipping soirée.
