LOUD WOMEN FEST BRISTOL at Exchange
Headfirst Editor's Pick

"Big, brash, women and non-binary powered mini-fest from our beloved Punka, spewing forth two stages of alternative antics with Lilith Ai’s anti-folk bubblegrunge, blunt as fuck feminist anthems from the Menstrual Cramps, witchy alt-metallers Hawxx, Orla Bligh’s tender torch songs + much much more."
