About Me

Verbal Kink are a four piece band which were founded in the backwater areas of Oxfordshire. There have been many family members in the nurturing of Verbal kink none more important than the other, the present line up are in a debt of gratitude to those lost but never forgotten. Verbal Kink have gyrated holes on such stages as The Borderline (london), The Bull & Gate (london), The Wheatsheaf (Oxford), The Zodiac (RIP)(Oxford), The Cellar (Oxford), The Brixton Telegraph (London), The Jericho (Oxford), The X (Oxford), The Pit (Witney), The Port Mahon (Oxford), The Hobbit (Southampton), The Uplands Tavern (Swansea) and many more which flew with a glorious haze. We have also supported acts like Mclusky, The Futureheads, The Duke Spirit, Dive Dive and Smilex. Also a big honour of ours was to play Truck festival in which we were lucky enough to play on the same day and same stage as Million Dead. Thats most of it, We hope you enjoy our tunes.
