Musical career
PINS formed in 2011 when fashion photographer, Wigan born Faith Holgate, while looking for bandmates, decided that she wanted to form an all-girl band rather than be the token girl in a mostly male band. They released their first album, Girls Like Us, in September 2013. In 2015, they opened for Sleater-Kinney on the UK leg of their tour.
PINS second album ‘Wild Nights’ was released on Bella Union on 9 June 2015.
