The Abracadabras

Idols need no praise; they worship themselves

About Me

Jezz Harkin (former manager of Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Kashmir, TV on the Radio) - "One of the BEST new bands in the US!"

The Kansas City Star - "At their best, Kansas City's five-piece the Abracadabras are a deliriously catchy pop band... They play swaggering rock in the vein of the Faces; Collin Rausch's melodic McCartney-flavored bass adds a Beatles tinge to the mix."

ink - "...their swaggering glam rock was a sight to behold... It’s so fun seeing a band that realizes it’s a show — presentation counts just as much as the music... A mix of mod and glam, the songs are simultaneously fun and sleazy."
