Babe Haven + Latter

BABE HAVEN are here with their explosive mix of punk, riot grrrl, nu-metal and thrash. Formed in Boone (North Carolina) by Lillie Della Penna and Naomi Poesel, the band quickly established itself as one of the most exciting acts on the new American punk scene thanks to its devastating energy, its anthems of resistance and its commitment to amplifying queer, female and BIPOC voices. With their second album, *Nuisance*, BABE HAVEN takes things to the next level by developing a more aggressive and ambitious sound, blending abrasive riffs, punk urgency, metal influences and unifying choruses. On stage, the band transforms every gig into a moment of collective liberation, as cathartic as it is inclusive. Over the past few years, BABE HAVEN have shared the bill with Die Spitz, as well as Mannequin Pussy, Otoboke Beaver, Soft Play, Teen Mortgage, Pinkshift and Pollyanna, whilst performing at must-see festivals such as Fast and Frightening Takeover, Punk Rock Bowling and Jorts Fest. _______________ Based in Chicago, LATTER is a noise rock project formed in 2022 by sound artist Meredith Haines and drummer Jonathan Alvarado (Beach Bunny). Born out of impromptu encounters and lengthy experimental sessions, the duo has developed a unique approach where noise rock, performance and sound art converge in a constant tension between fragility and chaos. Drawing on Meredith Haines’s experience in the fields of sound art and contemporary dance, LATTER delivers immersive and unpredictable performances that go far beyond the boundaries of traditional experimental rock. For fans of Mannequin Pussy, Otoboke Beaver, Scowl, GEL, The Armed, Gilla Band and Chat Pile.
