Editor's note

Hands Off Gretel's raw, melodic punk from Nottingham

A trio blending personal lyrics about mental health and identity with melodic hooks, formed in 2015 and signed to Rude Records in 2018.

For a quick sense of their sound, try "S.A.S.S" or "Kiss Me Girl", they give you the melodic hooks and raw energy in one shot.

They've built a following through live shows without much mainstream polish, citing influences like PJ Harvey and Nirvana. Songs like "Kiss Me Girl" and "Freaks Like Us" show their blend of melodic hooks and personal lyrics. Lauren Tate's writing often touches on mental health, identity, and female perspectives.

Hands Off Gretel formed in Nottingham, England in 2015 as a trio with Lauren Tate on vocals and guitar, Becky Baldwin on bass, and Sam Hobbins on drums. They signed with Rude Records in 2018 after some early difficulty finding a label that fit their approach. They've released EPs like "Burn the Witch" and "Ride or Die" in 2019, followed by their debut album "I Want the World" in 2021.
