Here we go!
What does Bambix sound like?
Great!
hardcore, punk, energy, melody, pizza calzone sin carne.
A combination of a medicine no doctor would ever give you, especially with the new health insurance law. Imagine lyrics about what the world should be like and never is.
How people feel their asses are on fire but they can't find water anywhere.
How you wanna bang speed 24 hours a day but don't have the time.
Imagine a band that plays so tight the string in yr bum will snap. That is when Patrick hasn't smoked too many spliffs.
Who?
Wick Bambix:
sings and plays gibson L6 and studio. punk from birth. girl.
Peter Dragt:
splendid drummer, Slayer-adept. boy.
Patrick Turner: plays bass but when you get him drunk he'll drag out the ukelele and play some good old Scorpions songs. boy.
Where? What?
Bambix are a new band, well, kinda new. well, kinda not-so-old. well, maybe kinda old-er.
Are currently recording their newest cd which will be called 'Bleeding In A Box', a culmination of what Bambix is all about. It will come out end of the year 2007 on Go Kart Records.
They played Brasil 4 times and are proud to be real rockstars there with MTV coverage for over 30 million people. Muito foda!
Can say they are real friends with cool bands.
Played big festivals, like Deconstruction, Earect, Dynamo, Rostock and minor toilets like the one at the Bijstand.
Been around Europe many times. Germany is their second home. Were the first band to play former Yugoslavia after the war. Went back there in 2006 only to be sent back at the border. Crossed that same border 24 minutes later anyway. Love to play in Eastern Europe. Had 8 to 10 points out of 10 for reviews on their cd's in cool magazines like OX (D), Visions (D),Aardschok (NL), Rock Brigade (Brasil), Plastic Bomb (D). Played and toured with bands like Bad Religion, Terrorgruppe, Fabulous Disaster, GBH, Good Riddance, Ataris, Sepultura, Pennywise, Snuff, Snapcase, Toy Dolls.
Had the opportunity too to play support for BonJovi, but finally they weren't asked for it, cuz jon bon jovi didn't want patrick to get all the girls.
Are on GoKart Europe and What's in A Name has been released on Daemon Records in the USA and Canada. Daemon Records! you know... the label of the fabulous Amy Ray/Emily Saliers. Yep that's us!
Play some 100 gigs per year all over the world. Never toured Mongolia, but comes the time then more then willing to ride horses with fresh meat on the saddle instead of under it. Check out their homepage www.bambix.org for superb merch that'll make you the coolest kid in town.
