First up today is a band from Yorkshire in the UK. Her name is Louise Distras. Her bio says: "Her brilliant live shows, meanwhile, included touring with The Interrupters, Dropkick Murphys and The Subways, as well as punk heroes The Buzzcocks, The Damned and Mick Jones (The Clash). Describing her onstage, Louder Than War declared: “Louise Distras is like that first vicious punch to the nose; you may feel it, it may hurt, it may be aggressive. But it’s the first time you’ve experienced anything like it, and secretly, you rather enjoyed the thrill.”
At #1 this week is a band that I just interviewed for my Youtube Channel (https://www.youtube.com/user/mikeintokyo2004). Please come Like & Subscribe! It's Hayley & the Crushers! They are billed as: "Poolside glitter punk from the Motor City."
