Defying the rock genre, SHECOCK AND THE ROCK PRINCESS will hit you hard in the face, leaving you to question everything you knew about gender and sexuality. Heavy hitting drums, grungy bass, screeching guitar, and The Rock Princess’ raspy voice will leave you wanting more

REBEL REBEL is Salt Lake City’s premier glitter trash band ormed in 2016 by three friends who didn’t know how to play instruments. Inspired by acts like Screaming Females and PUP, as well as Tears For Fears and Talking Heads, they started with solid punk on their 2017 EP, The Gospel Truth and moved into more complex and personal pop songs without sacrificing their intensity

Opening for AJA will be MYZCHIEF DU VOODOO, a buxom belly dance and burlesque with a big ....personality and presence.

You originally heard of AJA because they were on season 9 of Ru Paul’s Drag Race and last year’s All Stars 3, but Aja is now a singer/songwriter who has dropped nearly two dozen songs, 15 of which on a new album released in February. Aja embarked March 16 on 14-city tour beginning in New Zealand, then Australia, China, and the U.S. They will be heading back from Birmingham, U.K. to join us at Utah Pride.
