PISS

PISS is a noisy, genre-bending four-piece band from Vancouver, B.C. Combining punk, poetry, sound collage, performance art, and visual art, the band creates a multidisciplinary body of work that blurs the line between personal and political.

Powered by thoughtful musicianship, energetic live performances, and a crystal-clear artistic mission, PISS writes punk music that aims to transcend the limitations of a well-established genre. Their work draws inspiration from a range of unexpected influences: literary giants, philosophers, filmmakers, painters, psychoanalysts, activists, children, members of a German anarcho-feminist militant group, and conversations with audience members. These voices represent varying ideological beliefs about gender-based violence and enable PISS to create art that depicts challenging and controversial issues such as sexual violence and enculturated gender norms without reduction, romanticization, polemics, or dogmatism.

RIBBON SKIRT

Ribbon Skirt is a Montreal-based post-punk band led by Anishinaabe musician Tashiina Buswa and lead guitarist Billy Riley. The band released their debut album, Bite Down, on Mint Records in April 2025. Produced by Scott Munro (Preoccupations) and mixed by Greg Saunier (Deerhoof), the album marks a shift toward a darker, more introspective sound, exploring themes of memory, grief, and Buswa’s connection to her Indigenous identity and cultural practices.

Ribbon Skirt has performed at major festivals across North America, including SXSW, New Colossus, Sled Island, Sappyfest, and Pop Montreal, sharing the stage with artists like Dehd, Ombiigizi, Packs, Wombo, Marnie Stern, Enumclaw, and Chad VanGaalen.
