Description
Girlpool are Los Angeles based duo Cleo Tucker and Harmony Tividad. Their sound is comprised only of a guitar, bass and their striking vocal harmonies. This bare bones instrumentation accentuates their vulnerable yet powerful lyrics which tackle sexuality, lust, equality and empowerment with an unfaltering directness and honesty.
Their debut mini album seems destined to be a classic, packed with catchy and memorable two minute slices of bluesy lo-fi punk. It was originally released on local cassette label Big Joy in early 2014 and picked up acclaim from the likes of NME and LA Weekly. The EP will now get a full worldwide release on Wichita Recordings.
For fans of Honeyblood, Liz Phair, Bikini Kill, Cat Power, Joanna Gruesome, Waxahatchee.
The LP is pressed on 180g orange vinyl with a copy of the album on CD included.
Armed with just two guitars, the duo reel you in with seriously catchy hooks and achieve more depth with these songs than any drum kit ever could. NME
Every angst-ridden moment of growing up, from falling in love to self-acceptance is all perfectly captured in Girlpools selftitled debut. No matter the age of the listener its hard not to relate to the acoustic-punk of the Los Angeles duo. The Grey Estates
If Cat Power and Courtney Love came together to wear jean jackets and write angsty campfire songs, it would probably sound something like this. The Le Sigh
Their raw, bluesy punk sound is incredibly simple, shaped only by the sounds of Tividads guitar, Tuckers bass, and the two girls aching vocals. LA Weekly
