The lineup is here! Tickets are now on sale for the very first LOUD WOMEN Fest Colorado, taking over the Fox Theatre in Boulder on Saturday 7 November 2026.
And this is an international affair. We’re bringing together artists from the UK, Mexico and across the USA, alongside some of the fiercest bands from Colorado’s own independent music scene.
All Thicc + Bitchflower + Blankslate + Brokentear + Dressy Bessy + Fatal Femmes + GUNK! + I, Doris + Tarah Who? + The Dollheads
Coming up from Albuquerque, New Mexico, All Thicc are an all-fem, mostly queer punk band who are loud, direct and deeply rooted in their community, regularly using their music and merch to support local nonprofits and grassroots causes.
Fort Collins brings us Bitchflower, whose mix of punk, psych and rock is proudly political. Formed out of the local DIY scene, their songs rage against violence towards women, political corruption and all the other things worth screaming about.
Denver’s Blankslate are a queer-femme indie duo whose diaristic songwriting happily wanders across genres, styles and time signatures.
From San Luis Potosí, Mexico, Brokentear bring their self-described grunge/punkgaze: a queer, all-femme band turning vulnerability, catharsis and the search for meaning into something beautifully loud.
Denver legends Dressy Bessy have been taking their indie rock around the world since 1999, touring across the USA, Canada, Europe and Japan. Fronted by Tammy Ealom, they’ll also be familiar to many from their music’s appearance in queer cult classic But I’m a Cheerleader.
From Seattle, Fatal Femmes combine rock’n’roll angst with poetic storytelling, raw vocals and spoken word: confession meeting confrontation, with a fierce punk spirit.
Colorado Springs’ GUNK! fuse hardcore punk, sludge metal and jam-band energy into fast, heavy, opinionated rock. Their 2026 album FEMICIDE pairs intense riffs with outspoken lyrics and plenty of room for dancing.
Flying in from London, I, Doris are LOUD WOMEN’s very own international menopunk poptarts and house band, bringing their feminist punk party across the Atlantic after appearances everywhere from New Cross to Newport to New York to New South Wales.
Joshua Tree’s Tarah Who? is led by French-born Tarah Carpenter, blending punk, grunge and garage rock into raw, high-energy alternative rock. After more than a decade of touring across the US and Europe, Tarah brings a fierce DIY ethos and songs rooted in empowerment, resistance and speaking out.
And from Las Vegas, The Dollheads return to the LOUD WOMEN family. The sibling power-punk trio first joined us at LOUD WOMEN Fest London in 2023 and have gone on to tour extensively across the US, UK and Europe. They’ve become firm LOUD WOMEN favourites, and you may have sees them absolutely rocking the Empress Ballroom stage at Rebellion over the BBC last weekend. We’re delighted to have them back.
Ten bands. Three countries. One stage in Boulder.
This is exactly what we wanted the first LOUD WOMEN Fest Colorado to be: a meeting point between Colorado’s brilliant DIY scene and the international community of women, queer and gender-expansive artists that LOUD WOMEN has been building for the past eleven years.
A huge thank you to the Fox Theatre for helping us make this magic happen, and particularly to Maxx Goodman from the incredible Diva Cup, who has been pulling everything together on the ground in Colorado and making the whole thing possible.
We can’t wait to see Diva Cup over this side of the Atlantic when they play LOUD WOMEN Fest London at Rich Mix on 5 September!
And another enormous thank you to Diva Cup’s Maggie Kempen, who created this brilliant poster for us. Big love to Maggie, Maxx and everyone making our first Colorado festival happen.
