The Pits as in bad times, shit luck, sweat stains… but also cherries. Penny & The Pits is the new project from Maritime stalwart Penelope Stevens. Perhaps best known as one third of the feverish art rock band Motherhood, Stevens is also a vital organizer, collaborator and visual artist in New Brunswick’s weird art and music underground. Penny & The Pits, is the result of Stevens putting their voice front and center for the first time. It’s gritty, adventurous punk-rock that processes feminist joy, rage and revenge.

For the live iteration of the project, Stevens’ has pulled together an unholy trinity of badass femmes from across the Maritimes: Megumi Yoshida (Century Egg, Dog Day, Not You), Colleen Collins (Construction & Destruction) and Grace Stratton (Nightbummerz, Glitterclit). Get ready to crew up, rock out and take over.
