"Snarkeez" Fashion Designer Shouts Out Charleston Punk Bands

In January professional fashion designer Anastasia Sagalovich of Snarkeez did an interview with Shoutout LA magazine where she mentioned three local Charleston bands: Anergy, Abrevity and Blue Ricky. And best of all, in the featured photo she's wearing a dress of her own design with album art from Washington, DC-based prog rock group Caustic Casanova, the same band we played our first show with! She talks about how she got started in fashion, what the Snarkeez brand means to her and even recommends local spots for travelers, musicians and art enthusiasts to check out.

"For the punks, the graffiti walls, and places like The Purple Buffalo, Tin Roof, and the Royal American. Those are the venues where you will find the best up and coming punk bands, like Anergy, Abrevity, Caustic Casanova, and Blue Ricky. In fact, I’m friends with most of those band members to this day," she said.

Snarkeez helped produce our Society shirts and Ash Vapor even wore some of Anastasia's custom pieces during our past performances. They're great to work with and we highly recommend local bands get in touch if they're interested in having artwork featured in future designs. Shoutout LA is known for featuring independent artists in their articles, so we have to say it's refreshing to see local talent getting a voice outside the mainstream, and we're excited to see what's next for Snarkeez.
