Founded by Christopher Freeman (bassist for queercore pioneers Pansy Division) alongside drummer Brian Welch, with support from bassist Glen Pavan and guitarists Topher Ruby and Steve McKnight, GAYC/DC have earned plaudits for their outrageous covers of classic AC/DC songs.
Described by Kerrang! as “Glam/Sassy/Porn/Punk/Metal/Dirty Rock ’n’ Roll… with class,” GAYC/DC take the catalogue of AC/DC and turn the songs into a celebration of all things queer, putting their own twist on the heavy rockers stacked backcatalogue, reworking thie likes of ‘Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap’ into ‘Dirty Dudes (Done Dirt Cheap)’ and ‘Whole Lotta Rosie’ into ‘Whole Lotta Jose’.
Fans can expect an evening of high-energy, sweat-soaked action when GAYC/DC head down under in August.
Catch GAYC/DC performing at Ed Castle on Wednesday 19 August. Tickets on sale now via tributetouring.com.
