Noisy Pig (Berlin)
Noisy Pig is a one-man, electro-performance, wierd-pop, bizarre and wonderful queer act who has been taking his jaw-dropping show all across the world over the last few years. This is his debut Edinburgh gig and you should all be very excited - we are!

Help Stamp Out Loneliness (Manchester)
This 6-piece, female-lead Manchester band have been wowing audiences since their debut album was released on WIAIWYA Records last year. Fans of The Smiths, Stereolab and Echobelly will be wetting their pants when this amazing band bring their beautiful, intelligent and witty indiepop to Pussy Whipped. A rare thing - indie music that borders on genius.

Seafield Foxes (Edinburgh)
All-female punk rockers Seafield Foxes are one of the most mind-blowing, intense and brilliantly thrashy bands in Edinburgh. They are huge supporters of female bands in Edinburgh with their own "Rock Chick" nights and we are very excited about them performing for Pussy Whipped. Come oooon!

Pussy Whipped Edinburgh is a brand spanking new music venture, supported by Awards for All Scotland, based in (of course!) Edinburgh. I organise Pussy Whipped with my partner Lukasz with help from other lovely people including the Ladyfest Manchester collective.

Our aims are to support female, queer and LGBT musicians. We will showcase amazing, energetic, kick-ass band nights where women and queers dominate the stage. We want to create an inspiring and energetic atmospher...e which showcases punk, electro, indiepop and alternative bands/musicians whilst having a safe, non-judgemental community-based vibe.

Put simply, we want to carry on the great DIY tradition of challenging the assumption that alternative music is a privelege reserved for one kind of straight man, and help this culture spread further in the wonderful City of Edinburgh!

We will also hold workshops over 2012 which will be free to attend, to help queers and women gain skills in DIY music. Whether it's starting a record label, putting on a festival or hosting your own radio show, we'll help give you the know how and confidence to go and do it!

It is our belief that openly queer artists and women are amongst the most talented, challenging and amazing musicians on the underground. It is also our belief that we are still sidelined on the music scene to a fairly hefty degree. We exist to fiercely challenge that - and we'll have a fab time doing it!
