Joan of Arkansas

Five piece sludge pop band from Phoenix, Arizona formed through Tinder and Craigslist. Joan of Arkansas is weird, loud, distorted, and lyrically driven. Bright pop dual vocals peeking through distorted sludgy guitar and bass, then topped off with manic drumming. Is it pop? Is it punk? Is it noise? That's for you to decide! Fans of X, The Pixies, The Rentals, Hüsker Dü, Poly Styrene/X-Ray Spex, and Cheap Trick will probably enjoy Joan of Arkansas! Our songs cover the gamut of topics, but are often driven deep into what it's like to be piece a of desert trash blowing through gentrified downtown Phoenix landscapes, just tryin' to survive.
