"TPGK will whisk you back to being 13, and making a weed pipe out of a Mountain Dew can while college radio blares in the background which is the highest possible praise I can possibly give."
Trash Panda Go Kart is a power-twee lesbian raccoon rock duo from the Island of Misfit Toys. Expect noisy yet dance-y songs about critters, bugs, flowers, and food with sing-songy melodies & loud guitars.

Selena Kane(electric guitar & sing: she/her) & Zinnia Su(drums & sing: she/her) didn't get around to forming a band together until they'd been a couple for Quite Some Time.
When they write songs, they try to keep in mind, what would raccoons do. (If raccoons wrote pop music!)
The name Trash Panda Go Kart sums up the energy of their music perfectly: careening & a little chaotic; fun & unpredictable; and over time, louder & faster & heavier!
Trash Panda Go Kart resides on a forested island in the Pacific Northwest, not too far from Seattle — surrounded by trees, moss, cats, books, ocean, & other things large & small.

"Love the guitar tone on this short but sweet song from Trash Panda Go Kart! In less than a minute this duo had me singing along and bopping my head in a track conjured out of nowhere. It has snare rattle, it has call + response vox, my only gripe is I wish there was more of it!"
