The award-winning Iggy Pop certified bisexual vegan shitpunks, Joe & The Shitboys, formed with the intention of calling out shitty behaviour by boneless homophobes, meat-eating misogynists – and general vibe killers everywhere.
The live shows are full of energy, with a barrage of songs often under a minute long, like “Drugs R’4 Kidz”, “Save the Planet You Dumb Shit” and “If You Believe in Eating Meat, Start With Your Dog”, being broken up by the flamboyant Joe roasting the audience relentlessly.
The band has played every local venue there is, from G! Festival and the Faroese Music Awards – where they won Band of the Year – to DIY gigs on roof tops, public toilets, underground tunnels, museums and skateparks. Their heavy touring schedule has taken them throughout Europe and Canada, and they always manage to shock the crowd, only to later have them dancing to their infectious music.
