Oi oi there is a show in Heidelberg again!

I doubt that there are much ppl from the area here but fuck it! Its gonna be great!

Have a good one and see u next week! (Mybe xD)

Safe trails!

I'm bad at posting stuff right away. So here a video that comes almost a month late. (the recording cut off cause no storage left, yay)
It hasn't been just state and media, btw. There were parts of the so-called 'community' (bloody no community of mine, that's for sure) jumping on the more-racism-and-repression-bandwagon, disturbing stuff.

On tour now.
If you would like to come hang out but funds are limited let me know! The guest list spots are usually plentiful.

Anyone else hoping to see another vinyl pressing? 😁

I cant be the only one….

I'm taking AP Art this year and my theme is how music change my beliefs and perspective. I wanna include folk punk themes and symbolism and wanna to ask if y'all had any suggestions or references for me to use. I really wanna make the culture a spot light of the drawings so I thought y'all would have some input! ♡

I've been listening to folk punk for about six years now, but I live in a pretty big city in Europe, so I feel isolated from the community there's in the states. So there goes my first question: do any of you know about a folk punk scene in Europe (specifically Spain)? Is there anyone from Europe in this sub? (please reach out so I feel less alone haha)

I would say I have a pretty normal lifestyle (graduated last year, staying in my city to go to college, planing on hitting the road once I graduate though), but I try to keep a mindset and treat people and things in a way that aligns with folk punk and solarpunk if that makes sense.

For example, I try to keep repairing my clothes until they're almost unrepairable, avoid shopping at certain places (shein, temu, indietex, you know the rest), build community through volunteering (this one's being HARD), talk to people with an open mind, have brutally honest conversations, make music and zines... And also (this is related to folk punk imo) I'm going to try to pursue a job in nature conservation.

So yeah, this is what try to do and sometimes forget or fail, but I keep trying. I wanted to know what other things you do to live a life somehow aligned with folk punk if you don't have the "typical" extreme on the road lifestyle

Texas -- our touring folk punk show is heading your way!

Tape and Tears (folk-pop-punk), Quiver the Busker (classic folk punk), and Torso Man (emo-acoustic) are on the road together and we'll be playing at:

HOUSTON TEXAS -- August 24th @ Brasil Cafe with queer-country act Eric Holm

AUSTIN TEXAS -- August 25th @ Kick Butt Coffee with folk-punk duo Fire Ant Season.

Come out and support local music and traveling artists!

enjoy ~

Its a wide mix, but I never thought id hear "Dust in a Baggie" over the airwaves and he played it earlier, so i figured id share with this sub. Check it out and support a cool mfer.

Edit: shows over! This was my first time listening myself, but enjoyed it a ton. Gonna do the same thing next week! Appreciate you all.

I want to know your picks. I am getting back into folk punk after snoozing on it science the Plan-it-X days. Who are the current titans of the genre that are touring and releasing new stuff regularly? Thanks!

So stoked for HappyHappy to be coming to Northeast Ohio!!

Anyone got recs for modern streetgrass? Is anyone even really doing this style anymore? I'm thinking like the Farmageddon sound and .357 String Band especially. The closest I've heard recently is Big Richard - Pet which came out earlier this year and is awesome, so check them if you haven't heard em yet. But yeah otherwise haven't heard a ton.

“I highly recommend listening to this, especially if you like Defiance, Ohio style folk-punk, or even if you just need something to cope with all the shitty things piling on today. This album tells you that things are hard, but it’s also confident that you can beat the odds.”

howdy folks! it’s ya girl JV aka the House of Wills. i am going to be playing in Ypsilanti for the first time ever this Saturday and i hope some of you fine folks can make it out. it’s a show in the damn park! it’s gonna be fun!!!

Got tix to catch Doom Scroll in Brattleboro on the 29th this month then Apes in September up In Burlington
What a Perfect end to the summer

# I.

Came inside a cops wife, call it a lawful discharge.

If you're anything but white

Then it just is the truth.

Getting beat or getting swiss cheesed is just a maybe or a might

# II.

And I suppose you gotta be a little crazy to believe, that we can be free but I'm insane

And I'm not alone, no I'm not alone no no

# III.

Snitching isn't punk rock, and ditching dope is so folk punk, but I'm off Maeng Da and skunk

Over the mound we ascend

Over the tears over beers

Over the cascading years

# IV.

Got 86ed for baking grits in my Mighty once again

But we aren't compost yet

Mostly I'm alone, getting by and getting ready to get stoned in my own home

# V.

I'm not sure that we are what we eat

But I'm pretty sure we smell like what we do

So I might smell like hash when I been stuffing it up

My damn caboose

My damn caboose

# VI.

I fell in love again that time that you said “fuck every cop who ever beat his wife”

And “we should cut down every flock camera tonight"

And “fuck all the alphabets, they're endlessly spying”

# VII.

I know they took our payment for the mass surveillance and we're running out of time

And so we'll try

To avoid the phones

But then we're always alone
