Crushed Lavender are a Naarm-based queer punk band, heavily inspired by the riot-grrrl movement and artists like The Runaways and Bikini Kill. After spending most of 2025 on hiatus, they are back with a bunch of new bangers and ready to have a great time. Channeling their anger at the world and the systems that fail us, their music is loud, messy and unapologetic. Come share their rage as you scream along to songs about men, evil exes, and the occasional lesbian vampire.
