Sled Island presents: Peelander-Z, LEMON BOY + guests

Peelander-Z
Described by Rolling Stone as “GWAR-meets-Power-Rangers,” Peelander-Z is the galactic punk explosion of your dreams. Initially formed in ‘98 and always colour coordinated, their bouncy garage bangers have been heard on VH1, at Bonaroo, and further sharpened on the ‘24 release P-Party! Z-Party!. Whether you’re banging tambourines or battling a giant red squid, audience participation is a must when Peelander-Z conquers Cowtown.
LEMON BOY
Self-proclaimed “sour punks” LEMON BOY are the latest DIY gem to emerge from Seattle. The brainchild of Nicole Giusti and Yaz Ahsani, these scrappy punkers take on religious trauma, racism, and life as a femme POC on their debut album, Eat. Skate. Die. They’re sweet as pop-punk, sour as riot grrl, and ready to be your new faves.
