It's gonna be loud!We're bringing in Gully Boys, one of the hottest punk bands from the Twin Cities, to headline a special Femme Punk Night with support from Duluth's own Roadside Casino and Yonder. Don't miss this all-ages marathon of musical mayhem beginning at 7 pm, Friday, Oct. 11.
Gully Boys origin story plays out like the perfect domino effect. While sorting vintage clothes in a Minneapolis-area thrift store in 2016, Kathy Callahan (she/her) shared her dream of becoming a vocalist with their co-worker, Nadirah McGill (they/them). After encouraging a friend from middle school, Natalie Klemond (she/her), to join the trio on bass, Nadi picked up a pair of drumsticks and counted off a cover of Best Coast’s “Girlfriend.” Gully Boys had officially been born.
Having to master their instruments on the fly, the band's sound grew quickly - taking inspiration from 90's icons like No Doubt, Garbage, and Hole. The band earned Best New Band honors from their hometown weekly City Pages and shared the stage with everyone from The Hold Steady to Third Eye Blind.
Gully Boys released the EP Phoney in late 2019, Favorite Son in 2021, and the single Optimist (2023). The group has performed at official SXSW showcases and played iconic stages across Minnesota including First Avenue’s main stage and the Minnesota Yacht Club Festival. It has toured nationally with artists Nova Twins, Motion City Soundtrack, Destroy Boys and Bad Bad Hats.
Opening the night will be two Duluth-based femme punk bands Roadside Casino and Yonder Band.
Funding support provided by the Arrowhead Regional Arts Council.
