Kink Ador is a rock band based out of Nashville, TN, of the upmost talent and charisma. Kink Ador's sound is funky rock bass lines, dysfunctional guitar, and a drum groove that sits tight in the pocket. Their sound is likened to "the Talking Heads," "the Police," and "the Yeah Yeah Yeahs." Kink Ador's female lead vocalist/bass player, Sharon Koltick, is like Sting except more likeable.
Recently their music video "Animal" has won a bundle of Film Festival Awards including: 2010 Honolulu Film Festival: Best Music Video, Honolulu, HI, and 2010 Mountain Film Festival -Sierra Nevada award: Best Music Video, Los Angeles, CA. The video has attracted national attention because of the film fest wins, and was featured on the Fuse On Demand Music Channel for the month of June 2010. The song Animal was also included in a promotion for the Google Android phone.
Kink Ador has been rocking the scene touring through the Midwest, South, and Northeast. The band appeared on JBTV Chicago, in November 2009, and their performance has been in regular rotation on the show, along with the Smashing Pumpkins, the Dandy Warhols, No Doubt, and countless other National and Regional headliners.
Socially active in helping charities, Kink Ador has performed at benefits for Haiti, Sudan, the Second Harvest Food Bank, AIDS relief, and the United Way.
At the end of the day though, it all comes down to the sounds and the songs. The collaboration between strong rhythms, positive lyrics, and classic testosterone filled guitar sounds are what makes Kink Ador different. Kink Ador has 3 releases; Get Lucky 2008, I Am Animal 2009, and The Shape of Life 2010. The band is lead by Sharon Koltick on bass guitar, vocals and trumpet.
The Story of the Name: Kink Ador
A band is a soul and body all its own; therefore it should have a name all its own. Sharon identified strongly with the idea of the traveling singer-poets dubbed the troubadours. To bring this ancient moldy term into something sexy fit for rock and roll consumption she added a little kink to the front. Hence, Kink Ador.
