Our contribution to the compilation album “Cover Makes Me a Modern Girl” of Sleater-Kinney songs is out now on Heavenly Creature Records. All proceeds from the album go the excellent Girls Rock School Edinburgh to support their group music workshops run by women for women (Trans* and non-binary Inclusive).

“Cover Makes Me a Modern Girl” is full of great covers of a classic band, so head on over to Bandcamp to pick up the album and support the project.
