For today's episode, I'm joined by Ashrita Kumar from Pinkshift to discuss their wild career trajectory over the past four years, from studying medicine at Johns Hopkins University to touring all over the country opening for acts like Mannequin Pussy, PUP, and L.S. Dunes. Other topics of discussion include our shared obsession with No Doubt, finding solace in writing as a daily practice, and the politics of visibility in the punk scene.
✨ MORE ABOUT PINKSHIFT ✨
Pinkshift is a post-hardcore trio from Maryland whose 2020 debut single, "i'm gonna tell my therapist on you" propelled them into pop punk infamy in 2020. Following the release of their debut album Love Me Forever in 2022, Pinkshift was deemed one of the buzziest pop-punk bands of the past 10 years in magazines like Kerrang!, Brooklyn Vegan, and Consequence.
