With A Rebel Yell...
Shawna Potter knows a thing or two... or three.
Shawna Potter, ladies and gentlemen, a name that's not just synonymous with punk rock, but a rebel yell that reverberates across the hallowed halls of the feminist movement.
The fiery frontwoman of War On Women unleashes a visceral punk fervor that transcends music into a clarion call for equality and justice. Her incendiary lyrics punctuate a fierce, feminist agenda, challenging societal norms and fighting against the injustices that define our times.
She's got the guitar in one hand and the banner of social justice in the other.
Don't be misled, she is NOT just another punk rocker with wild hair and an attitude. Shawna is a goddamn force of nature. Her lyrics are the weapons she wields to tackle issues that have been scalding society's underbelly for far too long.
When she steps on that stage, Shawna's unapologetic presence and vocal delivery grab you by the collar, and you're forced to listen. She's not just singing; she's rallying the troops in the name of equality, liberty, and justice.
Shawna's not content with just rocking the boat; she's flipping it over. Her mission doesn't stop with music. She's an advocate, a crusader, for safer spaces in the music scene. She's got the "Safer Scenes" campaign as her war horse, taking her message of consent, accountability, and inclusivity across the United States. She's educating venues, bands, and fans, making sure they understand the battle cries for change and why the fight matters.
And if music and advocacy weren't enough, she penned the gospel of transformation, Making Spaces Safer. It's a Bible for event organizers, venue owners, and anyone who dares to challenge the status quo. This isn't just a book; it's the blueprint for creating environments that are free from discrimination, harassment, and violence.
Shawna's not just asking for change; she's delivering it.
Shawna Potter, a whirlwind of music, activism, and defiance, challenging the norms and pushing the boundaries of punk rock and feminism. She's not just an artist; she's an inspiration. Her story isn't just about the fusion of music and activism; it's a testament to the indomitable spirit of passionate, dedicated individuals, unyielding in their pursuit of positive change.
Shawna Potter, a punk rock prophet of progress, and a relentless force for a better world.
So, yeah, Shawna stopped by Thunderlove Studio to talk with Geoff and Keith.
