Public Figures is the uncompromising punk project of longtime collaborators Evie Vlah (Sunfruits, Mika James) and Gigi Argiro (Sunfruits, Folk Bitch Trio, Elizabeth M. Drummond). Fueled by a shared desire to cut through the noise, the duo channel their lived experiences as a queer woman of colour and a non-binary artist into fiercely honest and emotionally charged music. Their songs dive headfirst into identity, power, and resistance—delivered with an infectious energy and a raw, nostalgic edge. 

Since their formation, Public Figures have quickly carved out a space in the local scene, supporting acts such as Shannon & the Clams (US), Gut Health, Delivery, and Frenzee. Known for their explosive live presence and no-holds-barred songwriting, they’ve captured the attention of crowds with just two singles released—“Onto Something” and “Landed In A Trap”—proving they’re a force to be reckoned with. 

This is punk with purpose. Urgent, dynamic, and impossible to ignore, Public Figures bring a sense of clarity and conviction to every show they play. Whether shouting into the void or dancing through the wreckage, the band is here to shake things up—and they’re just getting started.
