"A laid back, sexy, sophisticated electro dance party more refreshing than anything I’d seen at a club in months." - The Stranger
CMYK began their journey as The Long Ranger in the Summer of 2004. Known for their energetic performances, mid-set forays into breakdance, and the ability to coax even the crustiest of hipsters onto the dance floor, CMYK has opened sellout shows with genre favorites The Go! Team, Jamie Lidell, Digitalism, Tegan and Sara, and Ghostland Observatory, to name a few. Along the way, the band has also garnered the support of the Seattle music community. They've been listed as personal favorites of web celebs the Three Imaginary Girls, had two songs — Rollerskates and Burnin' — in rotation on KEXP and KGRG, and they earned nominations for The Seattle Weekly's Best Of Awards in two categories: Best New Music and Best Electronic Group... all before releasing an album.
