In conversation with Gabe Colhoff of 1876

Shortly after 1876 formed in 2020, they released the first Pow Wow Punk Rock EP and introduced the world to their mix of punk rock and pow wow music, complete with catchy melodies, hard-hitting pow wow drums, and sick riffs along with lyrics sung in English, Tsitsitsas, and Piikani. They continued to build on this sound with incredibly energetic live shows, singles, and EPs. In September 1876 brought the Pow Wow Punk Rock EP series to a close with Pow Wow Punk Rock IIII. The six songs find the band at the top of their game, whether they are kicking out blistering ska-infused punk on “Dancing on the Enemy” (which features Hans Gruber and the Die Hards), or putting their unique spin on a 49er on “49er? I Barely Knew Her”.

Pow Wow Punk Rock IIII is available everywhere now via F Tiipii Records and you can pick up a digital copy here. 1876 will be touring the US with Subhumans starting on October 25.

Punknews editor Em Moore caught up with lead vocalist and guitarist Gabe Colhoff to talk about bringing the Pow Wow Punk Rock EP series to a close, bringing friends and family into the music, touring with Subhumans, playing with NOFX during their final Portland show, and so much more. Read the interview below!

This interview between Em Moore and Gabe Colhoff took place on October 10 via Zoom. What follows is a transcription of their conversation that has been lightly edited for length and clarity.

Watch the new video by Shop Talk!

Today we are thrilled to bring you the premiere of the new video by Brooklyn-based punk rockers Shop Talk! The video is for their new song “Museum of Sex”. It was shot at the Red Carpet Inn in Bushwick and was directed by William Hart. The song was recorded by Jeff Berner at Studio G in Brooklyn, mixed by vocalist and guitarist Jon Garcia, and mastered by Carl Saff. It is off their upcoming 7-inch of the same name. This is also their first song to feature Angie Boylan (Sleater-Kinney, Marissa Paternoster Band) on drums. Speaking about the song, Jon Garcia said,

The title track recasts an NYC institution—the Museum of Sex—as a kind of glitchy psychic landscape, rather than a physical place… The narrator tries to understand the history of human sexuality, but is plagued by unreliable memories and ulterior motives.”

The Museum of Sex 7-inch will be out on November 14 via One Track Mind Records and along with the title track, will feature a new song called “Gaslight”. You can pre-order the 7-inch right here. Shop Talk will be throwing a release party for their 7-inch on November 15 at TV Eye in Ridgewood, New York with Downtown Boys and Silly Zach. Watch the video below!
