  • Bio

    Manko Eponymous and his numerous unindicted co-conspirators in over a dozen bands have been guilty over the years of dabbling in bluegrass, art-punk, folk-punk, punk-punk, heavy metal ukelele, indy folk, acid folk, psychedelic grunge, protogoth calypso rock, college rock, grad school rock, avant-gamelan, epic trance, spoken word, trenchcoat folk, bossanova drum n' bass, tribute bands for Neil Young and the Rolling Stones, electroclash, electribal, tribalectro, tribal house, minimal house, acid house, bleak house, bliphop, triphop, barbershop, and Afropop. Under a variety of pseudonyms he's released five cds, two books of poetry, countless cassettes and one 45 rpm single (yes, he's that old). He's performed at venues ranging from Wolf Trap's Filene Center and the Virgin Festival to the Burning Man Fire Conclave and a national feminist convention, not to mention two memorable years in the house band of a hotel in Lesotho. Since 2005 he's focused mainly on progressive world fusion catering to DC's tribal bellydance community. His latest endeavor, "Kaihea Coda," is a remix tribute to his friend, lover and partner Kaihea, a bellydancer and firedancer who passed away in November 2008 from ovarian cancer. It's really rather good, and features remixes from Maduro, Solace, and Retrogramme. It's available for a variety of prices at Itunes, Emusic, Amazon and out of the trunk of his car, a beat up 2000 Honda Insight that still gets 53 mpg even after 110,000 miles. Most nights he parks it outside a townhouse in the barrio near Dulles International Airport and goes in to feed his three wonderful cats. Manko fears peaches and jellyfish (together or separately), has never eaten a twinkie, and would rather be a rumor than a lie.
