Babe Punch

**Babe Punch** is a fiery Vancouver-based punk trio known for their raw energy and unapologetic attitude. Formed in 2016, the band features Lauren Ray (vocals/bass), Megan Magdalena (guitar), and Kaitlin Selander (drums), serving up a punchy mix of grunge, garage rock, and riot grrrl-inspired anthems. Their sound—a gritty cocktail of distorted riffs, thunderous rhythms, and Ray’s snarling vocals—has made them a standout in Canada’s indie-punk scene, with tracks like *Wildfire* and *Control* capturing their knack for blending catchy hooks with biting social commentary.

With releases like *Glitter* and *Shrinking Violet*, Babe Punch tackles themes of empowerment, self-doubt, and societal pressures, often wrapping sharp observations in mosh-ready packages. Their DIY ethos and electrifying live shows (a staple at Vancouver venues and festivals) have cemented their reputation as a band that’s equal parts confrontational and relatable. Whether snarling through *Stanford* or channeling raw vulnerability, these three keep their boots firmly planted in punk’s rebellious spirit.
