On Friday and Saturday 9.-10.8. 2023, there will be punking and yäkking in the courtyard of the House of Art in Old Turku, just like last year.
Once again, there will be a wide range of punk history and nightlife from Turku, the rest of the country and the New Zealand/UK axis. On Friday, Turku’s reputation will be upheld by old HC legends Turun Tauti, Abortti 13 with their ice showand Kovaa Rasvaa, the country’s hardest live band. Maria Makaaberi and Nyrkkitappelu represent the younger generation and Bastards the older generation.
Saturday’s foreign representative is Desperate Measures (NZ/UK), who started their career back in 1982 in Christchurch, New Zealand. The band continues to operate in their current London base. Local colour will be provided by the excellent Irish punk band Loretta Problem and national greetings from Dirty Pikarit, Rattus, Maaseudun Tulevaisuus, Holy Dolls, Lost, Appendix and Punk and Yäk’s godfather Pelle Miljoona with Pispala Punks.
Desperate Measures
The programme will be completed and refined during the spring, especially for Fridays.
– Punk and Yäk, organised for the second time, immediately established itself in Turku’s festival summer. The festival was almost sold out and the courtyard of the Art House was filled with both older and younger punk lovers, says the festival’s production team.
