Roar Shack Live!: Smells Like Queen Spirit

PeachOut Productions is the glamorous lovechild of drag icon Peaches Christ and acclaimed conductor Edwin Outwater—a bold and brilliant collision of high art and high camp. Together, they produce dazzling musical events that fuse the power of live music with the spectacle of drag, variety, and theatrical storytelling. Known for their spectacularly themed shows and unforgettable special guests, PeachOut Productions are joyous, genre-defying celebrations of queer creativity, orchestral grandeur, and showbiz magic.

ROCK OUT! is PeachOut Productions' electrifying live music series where symphonic grandeur gives way to gritty guitars and pounding drums. In this high-octane collaboration, Peaches Christ and conductor Edwin Outwater swap orchestras for a live rock band, creating a powerhouse sound that sets the stage for something totally unexpected: drag royalty singing live.

Each ROCK OUT! show brings together a dynamic mix of vocalists, featuring legendary drag performers best known for lip-syncing who now step up to the mic and unleash their real voices. From punk to glam, grunge to pop, every volume of ROCK OUT! celebrates queer power and live music with bold originality and raw, unfiltered talent.

The debut, ROCK OUT! Volume 1: Punk Pride, exploded onto the stage at San Francisco’s Chan National Queer Arts Center in 2025, fusing queer punk anthems, iconic drag, and musical rebellion into one unforgettable night.

The second, ROCK OUT! Volume 2: Smells Like Queen Spirit, will occur at The Roar Shack on November 3.

Featuring live performances by Vinsantos, Fauxnique, Carnie Asada, Mama Celeste, Kat Robichaud, Cheetah Biscotti, Kylie Minono, Grace Towers, H.P. Mendoza, and Peaches Christ herself with a live band comprised of Andy Meyerson, Travis Andrews, and Edwin Outwater, Smells Like Queen Spirit presents an evening of grunge exploded and reimagined by some of the most iconic drag performers in the Bay.

This isn’t karaoke. This is revolution. Live, loud, and unapologetically queer.
