Crankbox is a coed rock band from Cincinnati, Ohio, dedicated to live performance and seemingly disinterested in publicity, record deals, or "making it." What else would you expect from a group that takes naked promo shots or slips profanity into an otherwise perfect radio tune simply to avoid mainstream acceptance?
Having experienced College market success with their 2004 CD Release, Superbitch, Crankbox still proudly lists ALL shows on their website right alongside their PollStar listings, including backyard barbeques and Bat Mitzvahs.
Unique in their performance style with backup singers, stage antics that would make Gene Simmons blush, and a sound that lies somewhere between Opera and cats f*cking, Crankbox finds a groove that people can relate to by dancing, singing along, having sex, or drinking (the four food groups!).
The combination of guitar-wielding vocalist BreAsop, Shane Vahle on bass, DrummerGrrl Ali, Singin' Sarah, and Lisa the singing KeyGrrl is sheer chemistry, bold and desirable. Throw in lyrics that actually mean something and melodies you can actually remember, and the package is simply gorgeous ear candy, eye candy, and music in motion!
