DJ set in Coventry for IWD – 8 March

I’m excited to announce that I will be headlining Boudica Festival‘s party for International Women’s Day on Friday 8th March!

The event will take place from 8pm to late at at The Tin in Coventry.

Here’s the blurb from Boudica:

Poster for the Grrrls Night Out event at the Tin Music and Arts, Coventry, on Friday 8th March, 8pm to late. The poster features a disco ball with waving arms, feet, and an open mouth. It states that the event will feature DJs spinning pop, rock, riot grrrl and more, plus visuals and crafts.

Killer Queen returns to the Tin for one night only! Killer Queen aka Ruth Pearce is a Glasgow-based trans feminist DJ, known for genre-bending rock and pop sets that bring together classic tunes and contemporary hits. Ruth has been previously spotted spinning the decks at queer clubs, protest after-parties, and activist conferences across the country, including Reclaim the Night, Women’s Aid, Queer Fest Leeds, Birmingham pride, and Nine Worlds Geekfest. In Coventry she founded and performed at the Killer Queen queer rock club from 2009-2013, and was part of the Revolt! collective which ran riot grrrl nights at the Tin from 2012-2017. These days, Ruth can usually be found found shouting in the rock trio Dispute Settlement Mechanism, playing bass in the noise pop band wormboys, and/or moonlighing as a professional scholar in the field of transgender studies.

This will be my first DJ set in several years(!) However, I’ve been constantly listening to new music, so am very excited to be once again getting behind the decks – especially in my old stomping ground of Coventry.
