Song is “Trust” by Replica. Niche post but I wanted to focus on the #BlackWomenInRock who are in hardcore bands. This was the first scene I was ever involved in personally so it’s a big deal for me that I can feature enough for a video. Let me know if I’m missing any!

See the longform Tumblr post here.

Listen! - EMP #sevendaysnewyorkcityinblackandwhite Reposted from @hccoleman - Posted @withrepost • @bk2lastudio // Black Rock Legends // Legends of Now Ft. @the1865band presented by BK2LA Studio x @punk.black. We asked bands to name a song from a Black Rock Legend that’s inspired them and why. Artist: Honeychild Coleman // @hccoleman Lead Vocals & Baritone Guitar Band: The 1865 Legend: ‪Bo Diddley‬ Song: Who Do You Love? (1956) When I was a kid growing up in Louisville, Kentucky, ‪Bo Diddley‬ was still very active on late night television as well as Dick Clark's Rockin' New Year's Eve. But I also had some of his records handed down from my parents. So much style, haunting sparse melodies, injected with a dose of wit and humor and he was a SHARP dresser! Really an innovator - there would be no surf guitar without Bo - and he had strong women playing in his band - Lady Bo (Peggy Jones) and The Duchess (Norma Jean Wofford). Later, as I got into collecting my own records and eventually picking up the guitar, I realized what a influence Diddley had on the guitar sounds of bands I loved like ‪The Jesus and Mary Chain‬ (who covered this song) and Bow Wow Wow. ‪Bo Diddley‬ rose above Jim Crow oppression, payola and music chart disparities, and still expressed pure joy in everything he created. 📸: @cp_krenkler Check out this song and more on our #BlackRockLegends playlist.

Black Women In Rock: #SeenLive (Part Two)

Doing a diary-like post featuring the #BlackWomenInRock related bands that I've gotten to see live over the years.

Had to split this up over two posts because of the 10 photo Tumblr post limit. Watch out for the first post! I’m going to try and get the videos from these shows reposted as well, but that will take longer.

2nd Photo: The Txlips. 2018. Union EAV (Atlanta).

3rd Photo: Diamond Rowe (Tetrarch). 2019. I developed a whiplash injury from headbanging at this show btw, no cap. The Masquerade (new location, Atlanta).

4: Don't remember this artist's name, but this was taken at the 2023 Punk Black festival. Boggs Social & Supply (Atlanta).

5: Angel Bunny (The Rack). 2023. Boggs Social & Supply (Atlanta).

6-7: Hurricane G (Böndbreakr). 2023. Boggs Social & Supply (Atlanta).

Are you the same person who runs the blackwomeninrock blog?

No, we are not. lol

But Jaleesa & her tumblr are pretty rad. You should definitely follow them.
