Hey all, I am excited to join this lovely community. I'm Kirby and I am here on behalf of The Whistle Tips. We are a Surf Punk band hailing from Brooklyn, NY with a strong emphasis on 60s garage sound. We are a relatively new band but have been hitting the Brooklyn circuit hard as of late.
Something we've noticed in the recent months is a strong grunge revival in NYC, and no offense to any grunge bands or lovers but we want to bring back the dirty garage shows that were so common the last few years. Maybe its because the novelty of budget rock wore off and all the cool kids want to revisit 90s nihilism, but we wanna rocknroll!
Our big aim is to connect with as many locals and touring bands in the states as possible and flood the scene with unforgiving fuzz and I figured this was a perfect place to connect and keep things moving.
Our big influences range from Man or Astro-Man to The Reatards, not necessary to list all of em but we live it fast, dirty, and surfy. Don't be shy, reach out to us! We are constantly booking shows and looking for acts to headline or open, we also want to keep house shows alive so I am hoping that anyone interested with join us in our conquest of Brooklyn and NYC.
So much talent on here and I can't wait to dig deeper.
All our love,
The Whistle Tips
