Puberty Well (2023)
Montréal, QC
Prue Gendron, the “Jill of all trades” behind irreverent bedroom-recording act Puberty Well, says she’s influenced by the“femmiest rock boys & toughest girls” of music history. Her cheekiness is on full display with this year’s nine-track debut The Boys Are Homophobic Sweethearts, a truly DIY affair brimming with both grit and melody as rendered through ‘70s rock and psych-pop.
