    About This Event

    Mannequin Pussy headlines a bill with Lip Critic at Starland Ballroom, pairing Philadelphia punk/indie-rock with a concise rock/pop opener. Mannequin Pussy's sets move between blunt melodic hooks and sudden bursts of volume rooted in riot grrrl and queercore, while Lip Critic — with an emerging Spotify footprint (≈35/100 popularity, roughly 14K followers) — favors tight rhythmic shifts and clipped vocals.
