Top 5 Feature: Pink Maskerade

 

Pink Maskerade is an Akron-Canton Northeast Ohio area based band that is a revival of 90’s grunge, 2000’s Poppunk and 80’s Punk. 

We love our music and want to share it with the world. Our music combines topics about life’s struggles, everything about love, self identity, doubt and heartbreak and everything in between. The band started in 2022. This year is all about exposure for us. We plan to start writing a new album (Sad Girl EP was released in 2023) and the work for that has already begun. We also plan on releasing and performing a new song called “Tidal Wave” in the near future.

Pink Maskerade has had an exciting year so far:

They recently released a new single called “Change My Last Name” and Mass Giorgini (producer and engineer of Rise Against and Alkaline Trio, as well as member of Screeching Weasals and Squirtgun) mixed and mastered it.

They performed at many festival and events throughout the summer and fall: Porchrokr Festival (Highland Square in Akron Ohio), Punkzilla Fest (The Outpost Concert Club in Kent, Ohio), High Spirits (Downtown Columbus, Ohio), Pearl Alley Jam (University Square in Columbus, Ohio), Girls Rock Hard Fest (JT’s in Elyria, Ohio), Punkzilla Halloween Fest (Mohawk Place in Buffalo, New York).

They have been recording three songs for an independent coming-of-age sports drama film called Rogue Runner, directed by Brandon Basilio. 

Late August the band won Best Punk Band at the annual Cleveland Music Awards.

Early September they announced new bassist Kev Jarrell.

They will perform at Punkzilla Fest on Saturday, Nov. 30 at Westside Bowl in Youngstown, Ohio.
