The show, presented by TINNITUS also includes Kelly Moran, with her new album MOVES IN THE FIELD on Warp Records, as well as Liturgy, who plays a special solo acoustic set, and a DJ set by JD Samson of Le Tigre, who has worked together with Pussy Riot on music for House of Cards episode “Chapter 29” scenes.

This is the first TINNITUS MUSIC SERIES since 2020, the return of Tinnitus will take place at Three Dollar Bill (formerly The Wick) where many Tinnitus presented many shows previously. Adam Shore of Blackened Music and Brandon Stosuy of Zone 6 are presenting.

PUSSY RIOT SIBERIA is a new project that exists at the intersection of performance art, noise music, and visual art. Known for her art and activism in Russia, Siberian-born frontwoman Nadya Tolokonnikova grapples sonically and in a raw display of action with her identity, life in exile, war, and the continuing struggle for rights for women and LGBTIQ+ people around the world. PUSSY RIOT SIBERIA is the code name for the group, including Nadya Tolokonnikova, Max Lawton, Riley Bray, and John Caldwell. The group has previously played in museum settings - for the American Folk Art Museum, OK Linz, and Berlin’s Neue Nationalgalerie

After this first show, they will also play Basilica Soundscape in Hudson, NY, on Saturday 28th.

ABOUT PUSSY RIOT:
Conceptual performance artist and activist Nadya Tolokonnikova is the creator of Pussy Riot, a global feminist art movement. She was sentenced in 2012 to 2 years' imprisonment following an anti-Putin performance Punk Prayer, which was named by The Guardian among the best art pieces of the 21st century. Pussy Riot, created in 2011 by Tolokonnikova, gained world attention in 2012 when their Punk Prayer video challenged Putin’s third presidential term and called upon the Virgin Mary to become a feminist and chase Putin away. Though three members of the group, including Nadya, were tried in court for hooliganism and served close to 2 years in jail, Pussy Riot grew into a decentralized movement. Continuing her work after her release, Nadya has received honors and awards such as the Hannah Arendt Prize, Time Woman of the Year, Woody Guthrie Prize, and an honorary doctorate from RISD.
