Goddess Obscura brings you the best music from women, queer, trans, and gender non-conforming bands and musicians from around the globe.

Our Featured Goddesses this week:

HOTWAX - A Killer rock band from East Sussex serving up a healthy dose of post-punk, grunge, and alternative rock, with a sound that's a wild ride between fresh and familiar. Sharing stages with legends like The Yeah Yeah Yeahs and Queens Of The Stone Age, these cats know how to set it on fire. Get ready for their latest single "Drop"  plus a mix of other handpicked tracks.

SASSYHIYA - These rebels are cranking up the post-punk heat and infusing it with indie pop-rock vibes. Kathy Wright and Helen Skinner, the dynamic duo behind this sonic revolution, aren't just partners in music; they're partners in life. Emerging from the vibrant South London queer scene and with roots in the band "Barry," these fierce goddesses crossed paths at a Rollerderby game, igniting a musical journey that's been electrifying eardrums since 2011. Their latest track is a bold and gritty reimagining of the 60s girl group classic by The Chiffons, "Nobody Knows What's Goin' On (In My Mind But Me)." 

BARBIE - This iconic fashion doll has been a symbol of both fascination and controversy. While Barbie has often been criticized for promoting unrealistic beauty standards and gender stereotypes, she's also been a canvas for reimagining and challenging these very notions. In honor of the Barbie movie, we're rolling out a power-packed playlist dedicated to Barbie featuring tunes from Care Bears on Fire, Cosy Sheridan, HotWax, Pearl Earl, and The Lunachicks. 

Goddess Obscura is a 3-hour long show that airs on the 2nd and 4th Monday of every month (late Sunday night) at midnight.
