After the demise of the popular cult band the Farmers, Slink Moss was born as a side project of the spook rock band the Goblins. Slink Moss enjoyed success as a regional act in the Chicagoland area with his band the Flying Aces before moving to NYC in 1997. In 2001 Slink Moss began rocking in the Hudson Valley which was near his friend and former Farmers drummer Joe Lucas. They began working together with Joe as a drummer for the Slink Moss Orchestra (which would later evolve into S.M.O.) Soon Joe and Slink began playing stripped down rock reminiscent of the Farmers in Hudson, NYC, Boston, and in central Mass. They recruited stellar bass player Matt and began performing at fairs, carnivals, and honky tonks around New England. They named their band Slink Moss East Coast. The East Coast band sometimes performs their hard-rockin country beats and power pop melodies with Flying Aces keyboardist Billy X Maryniak who provides a 60's Rock feel to their East Coast sound. In 2005, they recorded 5 songs with Nic Hard and Ethan in the Catskill Mountains. The Song "Zombie Mama" was featured on MTV's Real World and an instrumental version of "Ghost Factory" was featured in a film by Simon Lund and Slink Moss called The Shack.
