Let me introduce you to @GlitchersBand the punk band performing on the UK highstreets
#BCULN #bands #COVID19
Drummer Sophie and vocalist/guitarist Jake have been creating music together for the past year. Before the lockdown Sophie was getting ready to play her first gig however, #COVID19 caused the venues to close. [2/6]
Glitchers have already performed on streets in places such as #Norwich and #Nottingham and are expected to visit #Birmingham this Friday.
According to the band members the public has had mixed responses as they said: "Some people love it, others hate it." [4/6]

As #activists Glitchers challenge capitalism through how their band is funded. They take donations allowing the fans to decide how much they wish to pay.
Their merchandise is also 100% #recycled and they donate to charities.
