Short Version
Kink Ador is by no means a cool band; they don’t fit into a one-dimensional definition of moody boredom. Kink Ador is at the other end, a band full of heat, and full of passion; their sound is thick with both the rock and the roll, the groove is king. Their sound is likened to the Talking Heads and the Police.
The main songwriter for Kink Ador is the charismatic and deceptively cute Sharon Koltick, who plays bass guitar and sings lead vocals. Kink Ador songs are written from the point of view of bass guitar as the lead instrument, the groove of the songs stand as the strongest element. The pulse and the beat is driven further by the organic drum sounds created by co-founder Brad Naylor.
The collaboration of strong rhythms, meaty lyrics, and classic testosterone filled guitar sounds are what makes Kink Ador different. The band even adds horns, to have a soul vibe in the music. The sound of Kink Ador is stacked seductively from the bassy bottom rumbling under your feet, all the way up to the vocal melodies that hit you straight in the face.
The band is Sharon Koltick on bass and vocals, Brad Naylor on drums, Steve Cunningham on guitar, Andrew Sovine on Guitar, and guest saxophonist Ray Warfield.
Kink Ador has a history of collaboration that is directly due to living in Nashville, TN, Music City. There is a wealth of friendships, with many talented musicians, that has developed around the band. A special ‘Kink Ador and Friends’ show can include guest percussionists, guitarists, horns, and vocalists to fill out the texture of the songs. The band doesn’t jam, but they would love it if you would play guest vibraphone during the chorus of one of the songs.
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.
Hollywood version of Kink Ador Bio
It’s Sting meets Gwen Stefani. Sharon Koltick the lead singer and bassist, is hotter than a fever when she rocks on her bass with stunning finesse and groove. Plus she’s got ass for days (he said while gesturing with his arms in a widening circle around hips and backside.) The band leader and founder of Kink Ador, Sharon, is one of a kind.
The drummer Brad Naylor is a Larry Mullen (you know from U2) meets a drunken New Orleans bachelor meets Bob Barker. He favors only playing the tom-tom drums, so that the thick slap of the beat gets greasy and groovy. His drumming drives the sound like a freight train full of bacon grease.
The guitarists of Kink Ador are two sides of two totally different coins, even different currencies and amounts… (the exchange rate for these two is difficult to calculate). Steve Cunningham is the pretty face that plays the smooth guitar, and Andrew Sovine is the guy who makes his guitar scream and growl as if it has misbehaved.
