Bristol, England, GB · 2018–present · active
Grandmas House are a Bristol punk and post-punk band whose music turns jagged guitar lines, blunt bass movement, and wiry vocal hooks into compact bursts of pressure. Formed in late 2018, the group came through Bristol's active independent scene with a live-first reputation, bringing riot grrrl spirit, grunge weight, surfy melodic shapes, and post-punk repetition into songs that feel scrappy without feeling careless. Early singles and EPs such as Grandmas House, Who Am I, and Anything For You show how the band can shift between clipped agitation, sarcastic bite, and choruses that land quickly. Their sound is lean rather than polished: the drums hit hard, the bass often carries the muscle, and the guitars leave room for vocals that sound tense, confrontational, and playful by turns. Grandmas House fit punk scope through both attitude and structure, with songs built for rooms where sweat and immediacy matter more than studio sheen. Their appeal comes from the way they make familiar influences feel communal and alive, turning queer punk energy, Bristol grit, and a sharp sense of humor into music with real forward motion.
Hyvinkää, FI · 2015–present · active
