Lambrini Girls

Lambrini Girls are a Brighton-based punk duo, Phoebe Lunny and Selin Macieira-Boşgelmez, who emerged as a vital force in the UK's 'crank wave' and queercore scenes during the early 2020s. Their sound is a high-octane blend of garage punk and riot grrrl, characterized by Lunny's abrasive guitar work and Macieira-Boşgelmez's driving percussion.

They are deeply rooted in the DIY tradition, gaining notoriety for high-intensity live performances that often involve the band members being physically immersed in the crowd. Culturally, they occupy a space of radical transparency, openly discussing neurodivergence, queer identity, and political activism, most notably withdrawing from The Great Escape 2024 on ethical grounds. Their influence web connects 90s icons like Le Tigre and Huggy Bear to modern contemporaries like Amyl and the Sniffers and Sprints. Critical consensus highlights their ability to balance genuine political rage with a playful, almost camp satirical sensibility. Their 2025 debut album, Who Let the Dogs Out, solidified their position as leaders of a new wave of British punk that is as sonically punishing as it is socially conscious.
