Last year, Janky Smooth was smart enough to send a team over to the first installment of Dirty Penni Fest. We had Paige Vreede out to review the fledgling festival, Josh Allen out to shoot the bands and the people and Danny Baraz threw down a DJ set outside on patio of The Echo.
But it’s not about us- it’s about the bands that played the fest which was a collaboration between the laundro-maniacs over at Dirty Laundry TV and the whiz kids at Penniback Records.
Bands like Sloppy Jane, No Parents, Guantanamo Baywatch, Cherry Glazerr, our boys in Death Hymn…
and of course, no event involving Dirty Laundry TV would be complete without the presence of the great Mike Watt and whatever battery of musicians accompany him- whether it be the “Secondmen” or in this case, the “Jom and Terry Show.”

“So whether you’re 14, 26, or 60 I think it’s safe to say we all found ‘home’ this past weekend. So let’s keep the DIY scene alive. These kids are our future.” – Paige Vreede
This year, Dirty Penni Fest returns for it’s second installment and the line-up looks to build on the impressive bookings of 2016 by adding headliners such as the rockers Deap Vally and The Shrine.

We are also beyond stoked to see Enjoy, again- a Shears brother side project of the ascended star that is know as The Garden.
But with bands like Flatworms, Starcrawler and a band that we seem to be seeing on every flyer these days, The Red Pears, the boys at Penniback continue to bring the thunder with rising young talent like the already established jams of Jurassic Shark and Clit Kat.
