The Broken Spokes

About Me

This thing's come a long way from a two man guerrilla folk punk band from the Chicago Southland. After four name changes and now with five (maybe six? I'll get back to you on that one) members from all over the Chicagoland area and Des Moines, it has become an acoustic folk punk kick in the face that calls for cheap booze and dancin' shoes no matter the occasion. So come drink with us, sway and mosh, listen to a few good songs, and have a night filled with blurred memories you won't soon forget.-Kevin Dipshit-"Remember that time at JD's place when that folk punk band came and destroyed all their shit."-Jimmy Dread-
