Maddie & the Deadnames, the Pinky Rings, Transy Warhol, the Deadcoats [inside]
Girls’ night out? More like grrrls’ night out when San Marcos’ and Austin’s femme-fronted punk acts share a Mohawk stage. Summoned from 30 minutes south, Maddie and the Deadnames stir up rowdy roots guitar hooks and booming vocals on their self-titled August EP. Opener “Underground” shreds thumping blues, while standout “Dust” cycles serpentine riffs and howls. Skate punk quintet the Pinky Rings preserve the riot with a thrashing taste of “Potential Spam.” Transy Warhol wields artsy post-punk sensibilities à la the B-52’s, while the Dead Coats kick off with 2021 surf-grunge twist Big Wish.
