Cold Dead Hands Presents

Defiance, Ohio (USA)
Noisy, socially conscious folk punk played on acoustic guitar, upright bass, drums, violin, cello, and banjo. Defiance, Ohio are six kids steeped in DIY ethics and early American hardcore sentiment, yet their musical landscape rides the waves of new-grass and rootsy folk channeled through an alternative conscience and culture. Punk kids with banjoes and harmonicas, off-key vocals, barn ‘n backporch excellence.
Records on No Idea and Plan It X (home to This Bike Is A Pipebomb and Soophie Nun Squad, who have brought some of the most raucous gigs of the year so far).You can download their entire discography off their website.
Good enough to wash away the vile aftertaste of Against Me.

Fifteen Minutes
15 Minutes are a 2 piece, DIY (or die) acoustic folk punk adventure! They sing songs about life and our community, getting drunk, falling in love, friendship, sellouts, social ills, loss, unity and how important it is for us to encourage all ages into this punk rock family and to use music to bring people together for the better.
