The OSYX is a Washington DC based post-punk band that is known for their championing of all voices in the music scene. They have been described as, "largely raucous and at times silvery - with melodic tensions and chemistries, harmonies and howls that make you want to join the pack."^[1] Comprised of five women who came from various other projects they led, Erin Frisby (vocals, guitar, synth, multi-instrumentalist), Ara Casey (vocals, guitar), Selena Benally (vocals, guitar), Robzie Trulove (drums) and Maya Renfro (bass, guitar, vocals) joined forces forming the project, which grew into a local staple known for being "immensely collaborative, with some improvisation going on and anyone being able to bring ideas to the table for any song."^[2] The band is named after and alpha female "Yellowstone wolf, The 06 (that’s the pronunciation oh-six), named after her birth year. She was an unusual wolf, large, capable of bringing down a mature elk on her own."^[3] Having played for Fort Reno , Smithsonian Folkways, Washington Mystics and many more local staples, they are said to take the DIY approach to achieve top tiered music placement, and share the platforms with other projects.
