Unglamorous Sampler
It’s raw, it’s different. Unglamorous Sampler is the voice of ordinary women in 2023 Leicester who formed garage bands, created their own songs and had it all recorded professionally while it was still fresh. We’re sure you’ll find a favourite here, whether it’s the punk attitude of The Wonky Portraits and Virginia’s Wolves, the art-rock of Glitch Magnet, the great guitars of Velvet Crisis and Dada Women, the snarky humour of Venus Attax, Ruby Psyclone and The Verinos. Available on vinyl, CD and digital, Unglamorous Sampler is a refreshingly old school release that’s bang up to date!

Thanks to everyone who believed that women of all ages with little musical experience could produce such a remarkable album!
