NEW VIDEO & NEW ARTIST: “I” By Perfect Pussy *SXSW Artist*

Noise-punk outfit Perfect Pussy are one of the most intriguing projects to surface in recent years, garnering widespread critical acclaim following the release of their debut, 4 song EP, titled I have lost all desire for feeling. Almost instantly gaining the reputation as a ‘must see’ act, frontwoman Meredith Graves has no problem living up to such a bold statement, performing her disarmingly honest and poetic lyrics with a feverish intensity. Today, the band released the video for “I”, the first track off the EP, capturing the band in their hometown of Syracuse, NY.

It was announced this morning that the five-piece are confirmed to open NPR’s SXSW Showcase Party on Wednesday, March 12th, at Stubb’s in Austin, TX. This show will be the first of a nonstop week for the emerging project. Full details on their schedule will be released in the coming weeks. The band will be hitting the road this spring with genre-bending, avant garde artists YAMANTAKA // SONIC TITAN, achieving what is sure to be one of the most electrifying co-headine bills you’ll see this year. See below to check out all of Perfect Pussy’s upcoming tour dates.

The band are set to release their debut full-length album, Say Yes to Love, on Captured Tracks on March 18th. The first 300 copies of limited-edition vinyl were mixed with the blood of singer Meredith Graves, and sold out in less than an hour following their announcement. Tour Below:
