Tickets HERE

“The man in the sky looks down into my room,” Shiv and the Carvers sing on the opener of their new album, Always Watching, “And he wants me to put on a show, and I do.” Whether lambasting tech billionaires, crooked cops, or purity culture, Shiv and the Carvers’s ridiculously fun, anti-authoritarian anthems make for an impeccable show indeed. Incubated in the dusty warehouses of Toronto’s roller derby scene, the band’s “Josie and the Pussycats meet Bikini Kill” sound has been conjuring rapturous mosh pits across their hometown of Toronto and well beyond. Led by the electrifying vocals of Shiv Scott and featuring guitarist Nicky Maxwell, bassist Annie Jane Marie, and drummer Mike Wiznuk, Shiv and the Carvers’s riot grrrl punk brings people together in righteous anger. Having opened up for Lambrini Girls, Viagra Boys, and Getdown Services - they bring their roaring punk rock to Leeds for the first time.
