Although this all girl band doesn’t mind flaunting their femininity by wearing outrageous shades of lipstick at their gigs, their hard rocking, grunge infused tunes make them serious rivals for the boys. Catch them on stage at The Espy this Friday, September 12th when they battle it out in round one of Emergenza Festival Australia. And while you’re waiting for them to go on, check out our pre-show interview with the girls of Lipstuck to find out more about them.
