STUNTDRIVER
STUNTDRIVER is genre-bending adventure rock spectacle led by experimental clown/musician/troublemaker Kym Priess. Fresh off sold-out LA shows, a Vegas residency, a run of new releases & videos and personally invited to open Peaches’ 20th-anniversary tour, the project seduces audiences out of their comfort zones and delivers electrifying, immersive performances that make the whole room feel like it’s riding the same punk lifeboat.
Clad in monochrome stuntsuits and Blade Runner–esque makeup, STDR channels the spirit of Siouxsie Sioux, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, The Distillers, and Hole into a volatile mix of barreling drums, heavy bass, squealing melodic guitars, and explosive vocals likened to a collision between Tina Turner and Amy Taylor. Joined by the Warped Whores burlesque, the live show becomes an interactive concert complete with human tunnels, yellow sponges and plastic-wrapping.
The current lineup is Kym Priess (vocals/bass), Sean Burgess (drums), and Jimmy Rixx (guitar). New material “Tit Town” just debuted in Vegas —raw songs forged from Priess’ recent lumpectomy and recovery, transforming personal experience into proto-punk, cathartic performance.
Imagine a party co-hosted by Pee-wee Herman and Elvira inside a surreal Salvador Dalí outer-space painting, where Dr. Frank-N-Furter crashes into Barbarella, Cindy Sherman, and Evel Knievel and somehow the world feels much more inhabitable after attending said-function.
‘STUNTDRIVER: The way Rock n Roll should be. Priess is a force of nature. Part Joan Jett, part Courtney Love.
Rixx and Lawler are fantastic. Dahlia La Mode and Blue Lightning dazzle with their sexy, succulent dancing and burlesque.” -EatmoreArtVegas
