Mistress Distress is a punk riot grrl band that my friend Nelly and I started in August 2012. We each wrote a couple of songs, recruited my boyfriend on bass and my cousin on drums, and recorded them for an album we called “Pinkwashing.”
Mistress Distress is:
Dolly: Lead vocals
Hadass Ben-Ari: Guitars, backing vocals
Elad Barlev: Bass
Eli Dadon: Drums
Eli also worked on the full production of the songs, recording and mixing.
Influences include Hole, Bikini Kill, and Distillers among others.
The CD is available now for trade!

I meet Eli travelling around Cambodia and he told me about the band and your zine. I am obsessed with Mistress Distress! The world needs more feminist punk music.
Hi Zanetta! Thank you so much for your comment. And it’s great that you saw Eli in Cambodia, I hear he’s having a blast. I would be happy to send you a copy of the Mistress Distress CD. The quality of the tunes on Soundcloud aren’t optimal and the CD has art and lyrics. Let me know if you’re interested. I can also recommend some other feminist punk bands for you to listen to. I love feminist punk too 🙂
Wow that would be amazing I would love a copy of the Mistress Distress CD and yes any recommendations of feminist punk bands would be amazing.
