Singer / Songwriter vs. Garage-Punk
Kate Clover is a songwriter and musician from Los Angeles, California. From the local lineage of bands like X Germs and The Gun Club, to the glamorous destitution of the downtown streets, Clover is inspired by the city that raised her, exploring the intricacies of self-discovery, self-creation, and self-preservation in the place where dreams are born to die. With the live-wire energy and crackling force of defiant fists raised in the air, Clover’s music is the rallying cry of a natural born killer. Leading an ace band of rangy, rowdy boys, Clover cuts an electric figure--a next gen underground hero for the would-be believers.
With Patti Smith and Iggy Pop as her artistic North Stars, Clover mastered three chords and defected to art school, where she learned to play “Chinese Rocks” by Johnny Thunders, and wrote her first song. She cut her teeth playing in various projects but was determined to go solo, seeking independence and total control.

The garagepunk lieutenants of Sweden are back with a bang! Formed in 1999, this high energy garage punk outfit is known for their intense live shows, which have taken them all over Europe and even the USA. Now they're back with a new album called "Swedish Woods" and will treat Sonic Ballroom to yet another explosive performance!
