Gen and the Degenerates are a North-west based trio, delivering an idiosyncratic brand of indie infused with New York art-punk cool, and a distinctly British sense of humour. They effortlessly weave the kind of danceable pop sensibility more commonly found in a Chappell Roan track into songs that draw from Talking Heads and LCD Soundsystem. Known for their brash energy, chaotic live shows, and front-person Genevieve Glynn-Reeves’ lyrics, which are always smart and perceptive, but never take themselves too seriously.
An incendiary live act, they have headlined multiple UK tours, played festivals such as Truck, YNOT, The Great Escape and the main stage at 2000 Trees, as well as multiple festivals in mainland Europe including Sziget and Reeperbahn Festival. They’ve also toured the US as a support act playing in 2000+ capacity venues and were one of the most talked about acts in Austin at SXSW 25’
