GayC/DC, Guns n' Hoses

GayC/DC is the world’s first and only all-gay tribute (well, more of a

“refresh” really) to the music of AC/DC!

Born out of the frustration of not seeing themselves reflected in the music community, lead singer Chris Freeman (also bass player for the legendary gay punk band, Pansy Division) continues to use music as a way to open doors to places where gay people rarely go. Hard rock

and metal are two music genres known more for bad hair decisions and a conservative streak amongst its fans than for being inclusive of anyone gay, bi or trans, even while several prominent musicians have come out since the ‘90s. This is why GayC/DC’s 2025 video for “Gay Boy Boogie” (a reinterpretation of AC/DC’s “Bad Boy Boogie”) has turned out to be big news in the queer community as none other than Twisted Sister frontman, Dee Snider gave the video (a parody of their iconic “We’re Not Gonna Take It” video) a thumbs up, commenting on social media, “I think this is great!”

Guns N Hoses

Voted 'Best Tribute Band' by the Village Voice, Guns N’ Hoses is a veritable supergroup of the city’s hottest internationally touring musicians. Slash and Duff McKagan happened to drop in on one of their rehearsals the day before their sold-out show at LA’s Viper Room and said “You girls sound like our mirror.“ Slash later tweeted "Sounded pretty tight, I have to say…Cool chicks.” "...They were stalking the room like they owned it; strutting their stuff in big-hair, fishnet stockings, and leather short-shorts. Taking the stage, they overwhelmed everyone with “Welcome to the Jungle,” and never looked back, with an “Appetite for Destruction” heavy setlist. The Hoses are not a tribute band that sound just like the original. They are not a collection of eye-candy, thrown together that can just kinda-sorta play instruments. They are not hipster smartasses mocking the over-the-top silliness of the original. They are a talented band that really appreciates the original GNR sound, and has fun with it. Any cover band would have simply played the hits. GNH dug into the riffs, from the funky bass of Mr Brownstone, to the crying Les Paul of Sweet Child of Mine." -Jay Kennedy, New England Music News

The Guns N' Hoses gals are Erin Marsz, Mia Von Criss, Charlene Kaye, Emmy Wildwood, and Gina Ilasi.
