Turnspit

**Turnspit** is a Chicago-based indie punk band known for their raw energy, heartfelt lyrics, and DIY ethos. Formed in 2016, the group centers around vocalist/guitarist Jasn Kimm, whose candid songwriting tackles themes like mental health, queerness, and navigating life’s messy ups and downs. With a sound blending gritty punk urgency and melodic indie rock hooks, they’ve built a reputation for relatable anthems and explosive live shows. Recent releases like *Dogsitting* (2022) and *Desire Paths* (2020) showcase their knack for pairing personal storytelling with shout-along choruses, while tracks like *So Long & Good Luck* and *Split* highlight their scrappy, earnest charm. Turnspit’s music feels like a late-night conversation with a close friend—equal parts cathartic, vulnerable, and unapologetically real.
