Hot on the heels of the release of their latest album, xxx, Russian feminist punk-rock collective Pussy Riot are coming to Toronto to share their protest stories and discuss various topics. Damian Abraham of Fucked Up will serve as moderator for the evening.

Pussy Riot gained international acclaim in 2012 for their performance at Moscow’s Cathedral of Christ the Savior in protest of Vladimir Putin, which resulted in the imprisonment of three of their members. They’ve staged several more anti-Putin protests since, while also advocating for women’s and LGBT rights.

Catch them in conversation this Saturday from 7 to 11 p.m. at Velvet Underground (508 Queen St. W.). Tickets are $27.50 and can be purchased online.
