NOW REPRESENTING • DESTROY BOYS
“California punk rock changed my life. It showed me exactly what I want to do and who I want to be,” says Violet Mayugba, guitarist and singer for San Francisco-based punk band Destroy Boys.
Destroy Boys has made waves from the California shoreline to the UK, sharing stages with up-and-coming bands like Mannequin Pussy as well as punk stalwarts like Face To Face and Lagwagon. Following their debut Sorry Mom and the lauded follow up LP Make Room, the group released their third record Open Mouth Open Heart in October 2021. They’ve racked up over 120 million streams, with the numbers ticking upward every day. Their visceral, personal tales of scene bullies, elitist cliques, betrayal and unrequited love have won over the hearts and ears of eager listeners ranging from the fervent teens who pack out their shows to Green Day’s Billie Joe Armstrong.
