True story: I saw them w/ at the drive in at the shrine auditorium. It was pretty packed and I really wanted to see them since her song "your weakness gives me life" really kept me going when a year before I was dealing with cancer and chemo & radiation therapy. i really saw that song as a way of mentally dealing w/ my cancer and drawing a stance of how to look at this invader in my brain. The weakness of the cancer being so stupid it would eventually kill itself if the cells accomplished what they were supposed to. I saw that as a weakness and that no matter what I win. Either I win eradicating the disease or we both die because it would still be killing itself in the process. So while in the audience watching le butcherretes with all the red lights and her wearing a red dress i also happened to be wearing my red Nintendo sweater matching the decorum of the stage. She caught me with a moment when there was a slight break in music and lyrics and looked right at me and I looked back at her, neither of us blinking flinching or moving. I didn't want to say anything or make a stupid gesture I just wanted to permanently burn that moment into my brain. I love her and I don't mean in a sexual attractive way I mean that she shared a moment in time with me and made music to keep me going and I love and appreciate her for doing that. I'm a fan for life, they can literally do no wrong.

That was a great concert at the shrine. It was surprising when Teri took off the mechanic’s jumper to show off a torn up red dress. The dress looks liked someone actually tried to rip it off, instead of being fashionablely torn or something. It was a powerful message along with the music.

I love that she fearlessly connects with the audience like that! She does it here too. She’s that exact way always.

The stares she gives while she sings send chills.... so powerful, scary, incredible.

I sat next to her in an airplane once, and she was going over the health concerns she had about wearing a Pig's Head for one of her latest concerts. It was hard for me to throw my 2 cents in for that subject.

She's like the Willy Wonka of music or something. Strange and wondrous.

10 years later, and I'm not even close to being sick of any of this

The level of intensity that Teri Gender Bender (and her bandmates for that matter) put into everything she does is astounding to see. I'm not sure I've seen many (if any) more passionate and talented musicians out there.

I've seen a lot of Tiny Desks, but Teri's performance here will always be my favorite!

Just watched them in concert and I can attest, Teri has a POWERFUL presence on stage. Even in a packed auditorium, they really were able to connect with individuals throughout the crowd during and inbetween each song. The emotion and intensity in their lyrics were so much I nearly cried, even when it was entirely in Spanish and I couldn't understand it. Just wow. I would 100% see them again. What a fantastic and unexpected opener for The Mars Volta

Yup.

Her stare MELTS and FRIGHTENS me at the same time, which I didn't know was possible until now! Her humbleness and modesty followed by a chill "cool cool" :) Her PASSION is what is undeniably blinding to anyone with heart though!!!!

She is phenomenal.

Saw them open for Melvins last month. they were great, her energy and intensity was over the top and a great show.

Le Butcherettes (Teri) put on the most awesome show I have seen in a long time. Teri's presence on stage is amazing!

Saw them last night for the 3rd time. Always amazing. My only critique is that she didn't physically tear my heart out and murder me on stage. Maybe next time.....

yup, pretty much

They opened for the Melvins here in San Luis Obispo. WOW. One of the best bands I have seen in quite a while. A must see band for me.

One of the most wonderfully uninhibited performers in the history of music. The spirit of rock n' roll flows through her veins.

Teri is a female force I never knew existed. She takes performing to a whole new level of experience and showing the crowd how to let go of all the bullshit in your life and just let the demons out of the cage for a bit. You will not regret seeing Le Butcherettes live I promise.

i was taken at "hello" for now and forever no matter what

That was wonderful! She completely changes when she plays. I love to see that in a musician.

One of my favorite tiny desks

Saw her live! Incredible talent! Very friendly too.

Pasan los años y me sigue gustando mucho esta presentación. Me recuerdo despertando con una amiga, escuchando esta canción entre humo de mota.

She's loud.....That's a compliment. I like her vocal range.

I love her passion .... I love her everything!!!!

wao q bien canta ella!, no sabia q es de Guadalajara. Mexico, definitivamente tenemos muy buenos músicos y no los valoramos como debería de ser

I'm in love!

La amo! Verla en vivo esta chingonsisimo!

Just heard them in an ad by fender. I think.... nope yeah, I'm definitely in love. New fan. WON'T get sick of you 2 weeks from now. Promise.

She's amazing!!

Me encanta, la amo! Es tan fuerte y hermosa!

Love her! Have been listening to Le Butcherettes lately and wondered if she's still active. I'm glad to see she is and was recently opening for Mars Volta. I'm going to check out her new stuff after this !

you are killing it, good voice, good guitar, good music.

I have tickets to see them in Atlanta in less than 2 weeks and I'm beyond excited! I've been following them since 2011, and finally get to see this emotion in person!!

She had me at "cough coughhhhh...."

I found this years to late! This is perfect.

I think I'm safe to say and agree that, Teri and her band are most damn sure a band to look out for. I hate to have such expectations, but if she keeps on going like this, she and her band are going to explode and become one of the most recognizable and notable musical acts out there. Honestly, I just discovered her today, downloaded Sin Sin Sin, watched videos and interviews on here, and was just completely blown away. I immediately had to buy their album AND t-shirt.

When she coughs. 2020 felt that.

Saw her yesterday with the new Omar Rodriguez Lopez project called 'Bosnian Rainbows'. She's a true artist and performer.

I love you teri!!!!!

I saw them in Tucson warming up for L7. I've seen L7 a shitload of times, and Le Butcherettes was the best band I've seen warm up for L7.

The thing I love is her passion

I like her and the song too.

She's perfect c:

we love le butcherettes.

omg thanks for finding her

Amazing. TERI 3

Damn this is perfection 😍

Total Banshy Queen...I love her!!!!!! Nothing a woman's inner power to scare the pants off you! Keep going gal...%$#@! awesome!!!!!!!

Gorgeous and tight. Love it !

i love teri

Amazing talent. Would love to see her and buzz Osborne do a tiny desk while Mackie does art in the back ground.

Saw her yesterday with Bosnian Rainbows and I had to look her up. She looked at me and I fell in love with her

Killer performance.

Hello to you too and I'm glad :)

Lol...She's so uniquely awesome..Don't be scared of her, she won't bite.

Shes the only one who can save the rock n roll today... and i love her :P ... shes fucking really amazin... Tremenda! ;)

Enamorao :)

Someone needs to show this girl to Karen O

Teri is my favorite.

She's so fucking awesome

and that doesn't even take into account the ferocity of her live performances. It's like she's channeling early 70's Iggy Pop.

And now they're in a band together called Crystal Fairy. It's her singing, Buzz on guitar, Dale Crover (also from Melvins/Nirvana) & Omar Rodriguez (from At the Drive-In & Mars Volta) on Bass. Check em out, early candidate for album of the year & they're even gonna play a handful of live shows next month

Yeah.. guapa !!!!!......... 🇲🇽
