INTERVIEWâŚUpchuck are tired, rowdy, and very much alive: KT on rage, cellos, and why Bristol goes harder than Atlanta Atlanta punks Upchuck are a band built on rage, resilience, and community â and right now theyâre unstoppable. Fronted by the ferocious KT, the five-piece have been turning heads on both sides of the Atlantic with their incendiary live shows. Their new album Iâm Nice Now â produced by Ty Segall and out 3 October on Domino â captures all the chaos of their live sets, fusing punk urgency with grunge, hip hop, and even flashes of Cumbia. Lead single 'Tired' sets the tone, KT spitting frustration at Americaâs endless cycle of injustice over riffs that bite like barbed wire. Fresh from a riotous run of UK shows, KT sat down with me to talk about the rowdier-than-expected UK crowds, her unlikely roots as a cellist, and why sometimes being ânice nowâ is an act of survival. https://loudwomen.org/2025/09/17/interview-upchuck-are-tired-rowdy-and-very-much-alive-kt-on-rage-cellos-and-why-bristol-goes-harder-than-atlanta/?utm_source=bluesky&utm_medium=jetpack_social
