THE STORY OF LE SHLONK


Mid-summer 2004 - In the crux of a late night spa-bq in Melbournes East, three very best friends made the spontaneous decision to form a band. Little did they know it would change their lives forever.
Coming from a range of musical backgrounds: Chris (BOWmachine/Guitar/Vox), BamBam (Hit-Stuff/Drums) & Stu (Butter/Bass) were to embark on a collaboration of creative harmony.
Their influences met at a junction of singable vocal hooks, funk rhythms, blues-rock, and solid groove. Le Shlonks songs will carry you on a dynamic journey in a fast car through a raucous city, then tippee-toe to a quiet cul-de-sac where you can reflect before climbing a mountain with a hot spa-bath at the top complete with purring vixens! Empowered with this formula, the distinct Le Shlonk repertoire began to flow naturally like good spirits, wine and cheese.
Now sporting two hours worth of loveable material they regularly set out in pursuit of bright lights and hot nights with a live show that could be taboo in some countries. Their acclaimed good time show has become a staple diet for many and is finding a home in more hearts each and every day. A live set will see Le Shlonk place equal importance on the music and the visual spectacle, always allowing room for improvisation and interaction with their audience. On top that they have a dapper on-stage swagger!
Armed with the popular new EP Take me Away (reaching No.1 on SYN FM), an entourage of shows, and three TV appearances to be screened for 2006, Le Shlonk are really heating up the fondue pot. So climb on, unwrap, recline, become erect, and kick off your loafers to the boppin, bluesy-cruisey, melodic attitude thats all keen smiles and smoochin in the street!
Le Shlonk ~ Its a sound effect!
PS: A special Thankeee! goes out to Kimbubblyshlonk for singing her sweet heart out on the latest recording 'One Night Stand' We'll be seeing plenty more of her in the near future so keep a close eye on this jam packed lil sack-o-talent ;) BOW!!!
