Angela RoseRed takes control of the mic to host a special secret track episode uncovering the tale behind The Venomous Pink’s newest album titled, “Based on a True Story”. She chats with drummer Cassandra Jalilie with fellow Sound Sisters Drea Doll and Gaby Kaos on how this mid-tour, pre-COVID, Bridge City Sessions live recording became a product of an unforgettable, fun adventure, through uncontrollable, intense, time restraints on the road. Drea often says, “The true sound of the Venomous Pinks is hearing a live set,” and this album truly represents the band’s DNA. This secret episode is filled with laughs about speeding across state lines, one-way freeways, van hangs interrupted by what seemed like an undercover cop, an absent camera crew, missed stripper and donut opportunities, with a side of curb checks, all in the name of punk rock. See what van life is really like with The Pinks on this special Sound Sisters Secret Track: Based on a True Story episode!

A warning to our listeners: This episode’s content discusses disturbing topics covering sexual harassment, abuse, and emotional trauma that could be triggering. Listener discretion is advised.
This episode covers the "darker side of punk rock." In an attempt to rally for others who have been in similar situations, the Sisters relive personal stories where they experienced unwanted and inappropriate sexual advancements at shows. This provides a segue for our guest Kimberly Austin. Kim is a stage and production manager at the Yucca-North, previously known as the Greenroom, in Flagstaff, Arizona. She has worked with the likes of Bad Cop/ Bad Cop, TSOL, Agent Orange, Less Than Jake, Menzingers, Casualties, Murphy's Law, Voodoo Glow Skulls, Guttermouth, Phobia, CJ Ramone, Dead Boys, and Venomous Pinks to name a few. Her professionalism and kindness when delivering support to musicians is not only known locally, but throughout the United States. After a shift of providing production for a concert, Kim was a victim of sexual assault by a globally well known musician. Even with photos of aftermath bruises and an eye witness, she feared the abuser, who is referred to in the episode by a pseudonym name Dale Nixon, would not be held accountable due to his legendary musical status. After a year of suffering in silence, she has made the brave decision to tell her story in hopes to bring more awareness to others who are secretly dealing with sexual abuse and trauma.
If you or someone you know has experienced or is currently suffering from sexual abuse, there are resources that can help. Contact 1- 800-656-HOPE to be connected with a trained staff member from a sexual assault service provider in your area. Remember, you are not alone. Support is out there! Stay strong. The Sound Sisters stand with those who are suffering. We send love and light to survivors everywhere. -

She emphasizes the importance of remaining adaptable to self growth while staying true to your dreams.
