Janky Band: Live Recording at Lyrical Vinyl
On Saturday, August 16, 2025, Lyrical Opposition had the joy of partnering with our local artist friends at Lyrical Vinyl in Brisbane, CA for an unforgettable day of performance and collaboration. We were honored to welcome Janky Band, a powerhouse three-piece punk group rooted right here in Brisbane. Their energy, passion, and community-driven spirit aligned beautifully with our mission—and they absolutely lit up the space.
Janky Band delivered an electrifying set and recorded new material in the studio, bringing their signature blend of grit, heart, and humor to the Lyrical Vinyl stage. Their music embodies the soul of punk rock while carrying a message rooted in connection and kindness. We loved witnessing their raw, collaborative creativity in action.
At Lyrical Opposition, our work is driven by a commitment to oppose injustice through lyrical arts—from spoken word and hip-hop to film, jazz, and theater. And now, thanks to our friends at Janky Band… punk rock joins the movement.🤘🏽❤️🤘🏽
