Powerful punk rock ’n’ roll from Cologne, formed in late 2025.
An unconditional passion for high-energy rock, featuring a distinctive female voice, somewhere between the MC5, the Stooges, early ’80s hardcore, and the Cramps—original songs performed in German.
Up-tempo, fuzz, songs under 3 minutes, screaming, and full throttle.
Rebellion in band form: no-nonsense, raw, and gritty!
Pipi Got Wasted
Punk, Riot Grrrl
Pipi Got Wasted, founded in the summer of 2024, stands for honest, high-energy music that combines Riot Grrrl and punk with an uncompromising attitude. Following their debut in November 2024 at “Stompin’ Ground” at the AWO’s UFO Youth Culture Center in Bensberg and several shows in Cologne—including three at the Sonic Ballroom—the band recorded a four-song EP in December 2025, which is currently being mastered and will be released soon. With new songs and a revamped setlist, they plan to hit the stage more frequently again in the summer of 2026. With powerful guitars, uncompromising beats, and raw energy, they deliver a sound that captivates, provokes, and leaves no room for stagnation.
The Odonische Freitagsbühne is based on the principles of non-profit status and diversity. Artists from the independent scene and newcomers, regardless of their level of fame or professional experience, are given the opportunity to participate across all genres. There are no costs to the artists from Odonien, and admission for visitors is free.
