Founded on July 10, 2020 amidst a global pandemic by Co-Owners Lou Watson and Alexia Abarca, Punkaganda Press set out with a goal to amplify the voices of many marginalized creatives. We wanted to give a platform to those who are constantly breaking barriers in the world of music.

Our spotify playlist is updated every Saturday with fresh and exciting releases from upcoming musicians. We can't always keep up with the constant outpour of amazing music to present on the magazine, so more of our favorite artists will be added here! Take a listen, you might just find your new favorite band! |
That's right, we made merch! With the current pandemic going on, the live music industry has taken a big financial loss. Independent venues are shutting down due to a lack of revenue that they aren't generating, as well as music production crew members are not making any income. How can you help the music industry? We created couple of t-shirts and sticker packs with the intent to donate a portion of the proceeds to a music based charity and non-profit of our choice. Musicians get their start at these smaller venues and we would hate to see them go. As a publication that strives on empowering smaller artists we knew that we needed to help keep the scene alive. We don't know when the music scene is coming back; however, we want to help keep the memories made at these venues as well as be able to create new ones.
Merch pieces are limited so pre-order a shirt today!

Punkaganda strives to give marginalized groups a voice and platform for their creations. As our team slowly grows, we want to continue being a home for women, LGBTQ+ and BIPOC individuals. If you are a creator or need a place to begin, we would be more than happy to have you on our team and be your first publication!
