Fancy some high-energy Asian power-girl-pop-punk? Look no further than the amazing ‘Grrrl Gang' from Indonesia and their latest release, 'Spunky!' The song itself delves into Sentana's (the vocalist's) personal experience during a manic episode. Sentana explains, “I feel like I’m on top of the world, untouchable. I do things without thinking, always chasing after that feeling of instant gratification. I feel extra confident in myself—to a point of grandiose thinking—and that I could do anything,”
Originating from the vibrant city of Yogyakarta, Indonesia,, this power trio consists of Angeeta Sentana on guitar and vocals, Akbar Rumandung on bass, and Edo Alventa on guitar, and they have been making a significant impact in the Southeast Asian music scene since their formation in 2016.
Grrrl Gang's music serves as a celebration of their shared heritage and a testament to the unifying power of pop music across cultures and boundaries. Their lyrics explore themes such as feminism, mental health, and relationships with a refreshing sincerity that resonates with today's youth. With their infectious energy, socially conscious lyrics, and distinctive sound, Grrrl Gang is poised to conquer the global music scene and become a powerful voice for the new generation.
