Биография

Drinking Boys and Girls Choir are a Punk trio from Daegu City, Korea. Formed in 2013 when two drummers MJ and Meena shared a rehearsal space, decided to form a band. Meena switched to Bass and guitarist Bondu (who had just finished his military service) answered their ad. All three DBGC members write and sing in Korean and English making for a dynamic sonic range embracing hardcore, pop-punk and indie rock. Their songs tackle unreasonable governmental power, discrimination and the differences that cause schisms between people. Inspired by Sum41, NOFX and Daegu's 90's/00's hardcore punk/indie-rock scene before it moved to Seoul, the band are very passionate about not moving to the capital and nurturing their home scene. In 2017 MJ suffered a motobike crash and the band took a hiatus for a year while awaiting her recovery. The band signed to Damnably and Electric Muse who releaseed the 18 track debut album "Keep Drinking" on march 8th 2019. The band played SXSW 2019 then toured the UK on the 'Golden Week 2019' Tour with Otoboke Beaver & Say Sue Me followed by show stealing appearences at SXSW, TGE, LSC, Pentaport, Busan International Rock Festival, Indie-Week, Zandari & MU:CON. Bondu retired from the band following their UK tour, with Myorori Kang taking up the mantle of guitarist for the band. 2020 sees new releases and further tours and they already supported Otoboke Beaver YAMETATTA on the Euro tour.
