Sister Wife Sex Strike bring their farewell run to The Green Door in March

Seattle's anarchist folk-punk duo has put Lansing on what's billed as their final tour, with Rent Strike and Kissyourfriends on a Saturday night at The Green Door, Mar 6.

Some shows you circle on the calendar because a band is on the way up. This one you circle because a band is on the way out. Sister Wife Sex Strike play The Green Door on Saturday, March 6, 2027, and the tour bringing them to East Michigan Avenue is being billed as their last.

The show was announced Oct 23. It's an 8 p.m. start, tickets run $10–$20, and they're on sale now through Prekindle. Rent Strike and Kissyourfriends fill out the bill. That's three acts on a Saturday in a bar room, and it's the kind of night that's easy to put off until it sells out.

Here's why it matters. The Needle Drop reported that the Seattle band announced they're breaking up and heading out on one final tour. That run goes from February through April and ends with a last show in May back home. Ticket listings along the route carry the same word: the band's Toronto date at Sneaky Dee's on March 2 is sold as the Sister Wife Sex Strike Farewell Tour, with Rent Strike also on that bill. Lansing falls four nights later, on the same swing through the Great Lakes.

If you haven't caught them yet, Sister Wife Sex Strike are a Seattle-based anarchist folk band: two best friends who go by Sister Pigeon and Sister Moth. Their records live on Bandcamp. Their usual headline room holds about 200 people, which tells you something: this has always been a band built for close quarters, not amphitheaters.

That makes The Green Door a natural fit. The room at 2005 E. Michigan Ave. has the kind of scale this band plays best: close enough to the stage that the singalongs come back at them. Lansing doesn't get many touring folk-punk bills on a Saturday, and fewer that come with this much weight.

The pairing with Rent Strike isn't a one-off, either. The two acts have toured together for years. They shared bills at House of TARG in Ottawa in 2024 and at The Vera Project in Seattle in October 2025, and Rent Strike is on the farewell route too. For anyone who followed either band through those years, seeing them on one stage one more time is reason enough to make the trip.

Kissyourfriends open the night. Get there early and give them your attention. Openers on a farewell bill tend to play to the biggest room of their year.

What to know: Doors are listed for 7 p.m. on the venue's Prekindle page, with the music set for 8. Prices on our listing range from $10 to $20, so buying early is the cheaper move. And with the band's usual crowds running about this size, a last-chance tour stop is the kind of show that can go clean before the week of.

March is a long way off. It's also the last time this band comes through Lansing, as far as anyone has announced. Buy the ticket now, put it on the fridge, and say goodbye properly when the night comes.
