WA Roller Derby is releasing its inaugural fundraising compilation album. Featuring 16 incredible local bands from established artists with national and international tours under their belts to the exciting newcomers setting the scene on fire. Titled ‘Rink Rash and Whiplash’ after some of the injuries these girls endure this album’s certain to turn heads. To celebrate the new derby league, the bands that support them and the new album the girls have planned amazing night with a line up to die for.During the evening there will be performances from the finest ladies of the Perth Neo Burlesque, Iskra Valentine and Penny Dreadful. Bringing the noise will be Chainsaw Hookers, AAAGH BATS! and Project Mayhem.

Chainsaw Hookers with their catchy melodies behind an ear shattering wall of noise are staples of the local scene for playing hard, fast and loud. AAAGH BATS! have begun achieving legendary status amongst the roller derby community and are quickly becoming the band to watch in WA. With cussing at the top of their lungs, semi-nudity and epic guitar solos it’s a show not to be missed. If that’s not already enough to make you hyperventilate we have the amazing Project Mayhem bringing their high energy punk, hurtlin’ rock’n’roll choruses and epic riffs back from their national tour!! Guaranteed rock’n’roll bad-assery at it’s absolute very best. See them now before they are only playing arenas!
Our derby girls will also be there for meet and greets and to show everyone what derby’s all about …. so get down and say hello!
