Josie Wreck

Uncompromising, gender-queer, acoustic & experimental solo artist/ collaborative musician in Orange County, CA.

Josie Wreck is a 1st generation transgender Xicanx musician, vocalist, speaker, community organizer, DJ, and hostess of Aural Displeasure. She carved a space out for herself in the mid 00's Orange County punk, goth & art scenes by shrieking and abusing her distorted guitar in the genderfucking 3-piece HEIDI WU, and with her dark, abrasive doom folk stylings as an acoustic artist. She/they are most noted for their work in the bands Popsical, QTPi Xpress, Moonlight Squalor, for her solo work, and as the producer & hostess of her own music podcast Aural Displeasure. She manages, archives, and releases music under her Bandcamp digi-label of the same name.

Listen to this first episode of our second season as Josie Wreck takes us on a journey through the Santa Ana/OC punk scene, detailing how an uncompromising vision and commitment to amplify their voice created space and community for queer, trans and punks of color in the midst of cis-male dominated and white supremacist spaces.
