RIOT GRRRL'S NOT DEAD DC! FT. CAT CRASH

On Friday, October 9, 2026, Songbyrd Music House in Washington, DC hosts “Riot Grrrl's Not Dead DC! ft. Cat Crash,” a high-energy Riot Grrrl punk showcase headlined by Cat Crash, an all-trans, Asian-fronted band drawing from the NYC, CT, NJ, and MA scene. The night brings together several bands for an evening of feral energy, queer joy, and mosh pits that center femme and POC voices.
