Indigenous artist Gregg Deal started Dead Pioneers as an off shoot of another performance piece he was doing called “The Punk Pan-Indian Romantic Comedy”. He talks about that history on track 3.
For the debut album they recorded in Ft Collins they recruited Abe Brennan from Joy Subtraction to play lead guitar. Abe handles all of the guitar at this show.
To quote their bio "Dead Pioneers is rooted in creating and performing a sound heavily influenced by the punk aesthetic with an edge built on a First Peoples perspective and not afraid to tackle hard political and social issues, standing in solidarity of Indigenous rights, Black rights, Brown rights, Asian rights, Gay rights, Trans rights, Workers rights and beyond." It's punk rock as fuck.
A bit of a stripped down lineup but they kicked ass I thought. The was a hella fun show. Watch for these guys and see them live if you get a chance.
