28 degrees taurus
28 degrees taurus are jinsen liu (Guitar / Vocal) and karina dacosta (Lead vocal / Bass) plus touring artists and are based in Boston in the USA.

Kevin Synnott (Guitar), Sean Brennan (Bass), Joel McBride (Drums) and Leo Cosendai (Vocals) generate a tight soundscape which brings in tones of the early ’80s 2nd generation punk bands.
