VICTORIA LOUISE PECKHAM
Hi! I’m Vicky, unashamed Trekkie & liker of cats & cat pics 😻
I play bass in noise-pop band The Other Ones & write songs about being an anxious mess & being mistaken for a groupie.
Here for all your self care woes & scathing commentary about male dominated scenes.

MAEVE GROHL
Hi, I’m Maeve Grohl: bassist, guitar pedal enthusiast & gig promoter 🎸
I’m your go-to gal for gear, from the latest in fuzz pedals to obscure guitar brands.
I previously ran my own promotions company (Nerve Grass Promotions in Leeds), which was created with the sole purpose of bringing more awesome bands featuring non-male, non-binary, LGBT+ & POC members to the city.
It’s my mission in life to get more of these incredible people onstage with an instrument in their hands. The heavier the genre, the better!
💖 Maeve is joining us to head up the future of punk, metal & alt music – as well as delighting us with an exclusive series on Grrrl Jams 💕
