The Punk-A-Low is Dead, Officially

About Me

3 Home St. AKA the punk-A-low is the only Punk House in Guelph, Ontario. We're dedicated to having a cheap, alternative space to bars for bands to play. No big egos. No corporate record labels. No paid positions. Just a house of Â¿16? organizing shows to bring in out of town bands and to show case local talent.
If your interested in playing our space, contact yermom and we would love to bring you in to our home.
**Call-Out!**
Are you a struggling, or not so struggling, artist held back by a gender FUCKED scene & society? Well, we want you.
The shows at the punk-a-low have had a lack of female/trans/gender queer musicians, But we would like to change that. If your in a band & want to play our house, regardless of genre, we would like to put you on the bill.
Please contact us with your bands info & your enthusiasm to play & we will try our best to provide you with a spot at our shows.
Also, if your interested in playing our place & have released material, We would love to hear new music, & love receiving your work, So contact us if you would be willing to send us your Cd, Tape, vinyl or whatever it may be.
