WHEELCHAIR SPORTS CAMP
Denver's biggest smallest band.
Wheelchair Sports Camp is certainly not your average act. Fronted by Kalyn Rose Heffernan - a wheelchair-using, profanely queer and tiny rapper, with a very distinctly high-pitched sense of humor. Backed by her gimp Greggy on drums, the band combines humor, playfulness, middle fingers, and an undeniable love for the groove with an absolutely face-shredding live show. After playing shows everywhere they could, the band expanded into performance art, museum takeovers, politics, prison tours, permanent installations, theatre, film, and now the release of their newest album, “oh imperfecta” on Alternative Tentacles Records.
"You can't really pin Kalyn's beats and collaborators to a specific era or subgenre of hip-hop, and she always switches up her configuration and presentation and methodology while making the music happen in consistently fascinating ways." - Tom Murphy from the Westword
"Anthems of emotional chaos are my favorite." - Andrea Gibson
"Heffernan drops a deft, cocksure, assonant emo rap... over a staccato art-rap twinkle (courtesy of keyboardist Ikey Owens of rock band the Mars Volta) and skewers otherizing media depictions that serve to make nondisabled people feel better about themselves. 'Ah "my cute wheelchair"?’ she raps. 'It costs as much as your sports car.’ ” - The New York Times
"So...damn...good." - Sage Francis
"One of the most risky and exciting MCs on the city's hip-hop scene." - Denver Post
