Legendary feminist punk band, Bikini Kill regrouped in 2019 for 10 thrilling performances in select cities NYC, LA and London + a special headlining Riot Fest appearance. Marking their first full shows since 1997, the enthusiastic fan response saw these shows selling out quickly. Prior to the Covid-19 pandemic, the band had announced a more expansive, international tour in 2020. Eager to return to the stage safely, the band has announced these international tour dates rescheduled for 2021, plus four additional EU/UK shows. Tickets on sale this week. Previous ticket holders can contact their local venues for policies regarding refunds.
The run includes a valiant return to Olympia, WA and a benefit concert for Interfaith Works Nightly Shelter, a local non-profit acting as the only shelter/homeless services program that explicitly prioritizes women and LGBT single adults in the Olympia community.
These shows see the band performing with their iconic line-up of Kathleen Hanna on vocals, Tobi Vail on drums, and Kathi Wilcox on bass — along with guitarist Erica Dawn Lyle. Hailed by The New York Times, Rolling Stone, Pitchfork and The Los Angeles Times, the reunion has sparked critical discussion on the band’s legacy and influence on culture and music today with Entertainment Weekly, NYLON, The New York Times.
