Pussy Whipped is a queer/feminist band/musician night which started in Manchester in 2009, and is now based in Edinburgh. I organise these events with help from lots of lovely people. Here's a summary :
Pussy Whipped Edinburgh is a brand spanking new music venture, supported by Awards for All Scotland, based in (of course!) Edinburgh.
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 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!
