About Me

Mit den KNOCK-UPS bewegten sich Sängerin und Gitarristin Karen und Bassist Bryan auf den Trash-Rocknroll Spuren von SUPERCHARGER. Ihr Umfeld in San Francisco war zu dieser Zeit gerade Epizentrum glorreicher Power-Pop Veröffentlichungen wie THE PINKZ oder CANDYGIRL, und dies hallte in ihren Köpfen weiter auch nach ihrem Umzug nach Seattle. Dort gründeten sie 2004 zusammen mit FE FI FO FUMS Drummer Nick THE SUSPICIONS, mit welchen sie den in Kalifornien entdeckten Power-Pop-Goldadern nachgehen wollen. Und so kombinieren sie NIKKI & THE CORVETTES, TEENAGE HEAD oder THE NERVES mit ihrer Liebe zu rohem Charme. Nach einer in Eigenregie veröffentlichten Single sind sie nun bei RIP OFF RECORDS gelandet und bringen ihren ersten Longplayer gleich mit nach Europa.You can buy our record HERE!You can buy a lovely t-shirt HERE!
