Sidney & Matilda Presents:
Big Sexy Noise
BIG SEXY NOISE is the volcanic union of LYDIA LUNCH, the iconic American indie provocateur, with the
dark, swaggering energy of GALLON DRUNK — the cult London outfit known for their swampy,
blues-soaked bursts of sound.
LYDIA LUNCH has been setting fires in the underground world for decades — from her incendiary
beginnings with TEENAGE JESUS AND THE JERKS in the late-’70s New York no wave scene to her
relentless spoken word, film, and musical collaborations with disparate artists such as WILLIAM
BURROUGHS, ROWLAND S. HOWARD, THURSTON MOORE, ANTHONY BOURDAIN, and numerous
others.
JAMES JOHNSTON and IAN WHITE are best known as the founder/vocalist/guitarist and drummer of
GALLON DRUNK. Emerging in the early 1990s, the band’s wild fusion of post-punk cinematic noir
earned them critical acclaim and a devoted following, leading to collaborations and tours with artists like
FAUST, PJ HARVEY, NICK CAVE AND THE BAD SEEDS, and others.
With BIG SEXY NOISE, LUNCH’s raw wit and fearless presence find their match in the bruised elegance
of her bandmates' instrumental fury — a collision of distorted guitar and hypnotic rhythm that turns every
performance into a ritual. Together, they form an unholy alliance that acts as a living, breathing,
screaming testament to rock's primal pulse. BIG SEXY NOISE don't do concerts; they conjure storms.
